An affiliate of Interfaith Partnership of St. Louis

Join the Metro-East Interfaith Partnership for our second "A Taste of Faith" as we explore foods and special days in Judaism, Hinduism, and Islam on Sunday, November 13, from 2:00 to 4:00. St. Luke's Catholic Church, 310 N. Church Street, Belleville. Call 618-660-7937 for more information or to make a reservation. We will hear about special days in each of these faith traditions and sample tasty treats from these religions. Requested donation of $5.00 per person to cover cost of food. 

The Metro-East Interfaith Partnership began in 2002 in response to the mistrust that increased between faith traditions after the tragedy of September 11, 2001.

Several people felt called to begin building bridges of trust within our local community of Belleville, IL and the surrounding area. We continue to gather to learn about our various faith traditions, respect our differences, and celebrate our common faith perspectives.

We work cooperatively with the Interfaith Partnership of St. Louis and the Friends of the Religious Center at SIUE, striving to network with other local interfaith communities.

Current participation in the Metro-east includes Bahá'í, Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and Religious Science members. We invite other faith traditions to join with us in conversation.

To become a supporting member for only $24, fill out the membership form and mail or bring to an event. Joining gets you two free bus tour tickets and free admission to our other events.
