2006-FEB-27: "God is One" Project: The National
Council of Churches, USA, the Islamic Society of North America, and
Hartford Seminary are co-sponsoring a project to enhance the knowledge of
Islam among Christians, to improve the attitude of Christians towards Muslims,
and to encourage building relationships between Churches and Mosques in local
communities. The project is built around a book by R. Marston Speight, a retired
United Methodist minister, called "God is One: The Way of Islam" with an
associated study guide written by Jay Rock, Director of Interfaith Relations of
the Presbyterian Church, USA. Two pilot projects have been scheduled in March to
train adult education leaders in churches near Hartford, CD and New York City,
NY so that they can organize adult education sessions in their congregations.
