The use of church buildings by people of other faith communities

In an increasingly diverse society, local churches are often approached by other faith communities seeking premises where they can hold worship or events. The Ã山ǿ¼é last issued guidance about how a local church might host another faith community back in 1974.

It seemed very appropriate therefore to provide more up to date advice. Working with Baptist interfaith colleagues, the Ã山ǿ¼é has produced a brand new booklet for local churches entitled, ‘The use of church buildings by people of other faith communities’. The document gives helpful pointers to assist churches as they discern whether such hospitality would work in their particular context.
