On January 18, 2009 the Ismaili Muslim Community hosted the Interfaith Network of Calgary at the Ismaili Jamatkhana and Centre.
The session was attended by 40 participants from the Christian, Hindu, Jewish, Sikh and Ismaili Muslim faith tradition.
Rev. Tom Melvin brought a group of youth from Deer Park United Church to attend this session as part of the requirement towards their Confirmation.
Jamil Kassam, an Ismaili Muslim scholar, talked about “Identity and Pluralism,” with reference to the Ismailis in Calgary.

It is good to arrange this type of activities to understand each other, to assimilate in a new society, but it is on a regular basis with some targets. Just think, it was last year. I have been working on interfaith, peace building, tolerance etc since 1998.
I feel pleasure to see this in the town again in near future.
