How we can do more at an individual level:

  1. Read the scriptures of another faith and then share what you have read with people of your own faith.
  2. Invite someone of another faith to your home
  3. Invite someone of another faith to your place of worship/religious community and give them the opportunity to observe/experience your religious practices
  4. Share scriptural discussions with people of other faiths (e.g. Scriptural Reasoning)
  5. Make a charitable donation to a charity operated by people of a different faith
  6. Run an inter faith study/event at your place of worship/religious community
  7. Talk about your friendships with people of other faiths with your congregation/religious community
  8. Give a copy of your scriptures to a friend of another faith (but not with the intention of converting them)
  9. Involve yourself in the religious observance of another faith (but without compromise or syncretism)
  10. Listen to what women of your faith or another faith are saying about inter faith engagement (and include them).
