As one of Houston’s oldest interfaith service organizations in Houston, Interfaith Ministries for Greater Houston’s interreligious engagement stands at the heart of our mission.
The Interfaith Relations and Community Partnerships (IRCP) program brings diverse groups together for dialogue and service with the goal of ushering in a more connected community.
Our programming helps us:
EDUCATE.
Tours, special events, and dialogue projects create opportunities to learn about societal issues, differing perspectives, and each other.
ENGAGE.
Engaging in service and dialogue fosters a more just society and provides support for the most vulnerable members of our community.
CULTIVATE.
Educational programming is proven to expand cultural literacy impacting communities one conversation at a time.
Join interactive and engaging vital conversations, dialogues, and community events that explore societal issues, foster interreligious and cultural understanding, and celebrate our community’s diverse tapestry.
