Interfaith Dialogue

The Atlantic Institute is a leading organization in promoting interfaith dialogue and understanding. We are dedicated to fostering respect, unity, and mutual understanding among diverse faith groups through our engaging interfaith activities and initiatives.

Our interfaith events, such as Sharing Fast Breaking (Iftar) Dinners, Solidarity Through Prayers, Sharing Eid with the Community, and Interfaith Potluck Dinners, provide a platform for open dialogue and collaboration among people of different beliefs. These interfaith activities allow attendees to learn more about various faith traditions and customs, fostering a spirit of inclusivity and understanding.

In addition to these, we organize the Abrahamic Table and Community Thanksgiving Dinners, which serve as platforms for building relationships based on understanding, trust, and respect. These interfaith gatherings allow community members to share their experiences and perspectives, strengthening the bonds between diverse faith groups. By encouraging open dialogue and promoting the values of empathy and respect, we contribute to a more harmonious and tolerant society.

Our International & Domestic Dialogue Trips are designed to promote cultural exchange and personal interaction, recognizing them as the best channels for building a peaceful world. These trips provide participants with the unique opportunity to engage in interfaith dialogue with different cultures and faiths, fostering a spirit of global citizenship and understanding. Through these transformative experiences, we aim to inspire individuals to become ambassadors for peace and understanding in their own communities.

By participating in these interfaith events, local community members from various ethnic and religious backgrounds come together, fostering a sense of unity and cooperation. Our objective is to advocate for the experience of the "art of living together" through respect, embrace, dialogue, love, and the richness of faith and culture. Our work is inspired by the “Hizmet Movement” and other influential thinkers and activists in the field of interfaith dialogue.
