Abstract

Dialogue Society hosted an inclusive, unifying moment of prayer for humanity amid the COVID-19 pandemic with the participation from community leaders from the UK on Sunday 8th November at 13.00.

In the light of the interfaith week, we believe it is crucial to show and display our unity as faith communities and community leaders uniting in prayer and best wishes.

As many of our community members are left distraught at the escalating cases, it is vital to share a moment of prayer to unify and empower communities in our new and challenging experiences under COVID-19.
