INTERFAITH PARTNERSHIP OF METROPOLITAN ST. LOUIS

DIALOGUE GROUPS

What is dialogue?
We currently have four dialogue groups representing nearly 100 St. Louisians' of diverse backgrounds that meet on a monthly basis. The dynamic groups are comprised of individuals from various faith communities, laity & religious leaders.

Our dialogue groups represent people coming together in conversation to seek a deeper awareness of the reality of faith in their lives. Dialogue groups foster a better understanding of faith traditions outside of their own. The groups form small communities that encourage and empower one another as agents of reconciliation and transformation in their environments.

Please call Irene Randall at 314-531-4787 if you would like to join one of our dialogue groups.

West County Dialogue Group

Youth Adult Dialogue Action (YADA) Ambassadors
YADA Ambassadors is comprised of campus ministers from local Missouri and Illinois Universities. The goal of YADA is to connect campus ministers in an effort to stimulate involvement from individuals of faith and goodwill between the ages of 18-35 in inter-religious dialogue, education and community service programs throughout the region. YADA also creates a platform that encourages emerging young adult faith leaders to be more civically engaged and socially conscious. If you are interested in being a part of the YADA Commission, please contact us.
