24th Multifaith Pilgrimage for Peace, 6th June 2009
The London People of Faith for Peace is a group committed to inter-faith harmony and understanding. We are people who believe in the power of religious faith to bring peace and not division. All religions are represented, either in the groups of pilgrims or in the places of worship that we visit, often in both.
This was the twenty-fourth annual pilgrimage. It is our practice to stop for prayer, conversation and refreshments at a number of different places of worship on the way.
This year the pilgrimage began in three different places designated below as CENTRAL, NORTH and WEST and you will find links to reports from various pilgrims below. The three groups met at the Zoroastrian Centre, Rayners Lane at midday.
