The Connecticut Council for Interreligious Understanding

A Statement From CCIU

CCIU stands with our Asian American and Pacific Islander brothers and sisters, who have been increasingly under attack since the pandemic.

We condemn these intolerable incidents of violence and call on all people to denounce such racism and hatred, which is on the rise in our country.

More than ever, our core value – Love Thy Neighbor – demands that we call out acts and statements of hate, both overt and subtle, and actively support those who are targeted.

Welcome

CCIU promotes understanding and respect for all religious traditions through continuing dialogue and interaction among participants of all faiths.

We act against religious bigotry and ignorance by bringing together people of different faiths and traditions to learn more about – and stand up for – one another.

And we invite you to join us.

The Connecticut Council for Interreligious Understanding welcomes the increasing religious diversity in our society. We recognize the need for dialogue and interaction among participants of all religions in order to promote mutual respect.
