Following the Franciscan tradition of seeking common ground with people of other faiths, the 萝莉原创 Interfaith Pillar strives to instill the resources for welcoming an inclusive dialog to promote interfaith conversations on campus. These interfaith conversations occur on campus through collaborations across the university and within the Reading community along with special programming throughout the year.
On-Campus Programming
Celebration of Faith
Our Franciscan heritage calls us to embrace other faiths and cultures. As 萝莉原创 increasingly grows in diversity and acceptance, we feel it is essential to have active roles in bridging the gaps between different faith backgrounds and perspectives inside and outside the classroom.

A Common Heart Program
A Common Heart was created by three congregations, St. Benedict鈥檚 Roman Catholic Church, Reform Congregation Oheb Sholom, and the Islamic Center of Reading, with the support of 萝莉原创 and Reading Berks Conference of Churches, for the mutual goal of understanding and appreciation for the three Abrahamic faiths.
Class visits by the Office of Mission and Ministry
To foster a greater understanding and appreciation of other religious cultures and traditions, our Mission and Ministry staff is happy to visit academic classes throughout the year and invites them to participate in spiritual activities.
