Statement of Purpose for the Blue Mountains Interfaith Group

We come together as members of the different religious and spiritual traditions in the Blue Mountains,
and we seek to work together on causes of common interest, such as the care and celebration of the environment.
Each of us loves our own faith, while respecting others who equally love theirs.
Coming together from diverse cultures and faith expressions, we uphold the values we hold in common.
We join in solidarity as seekers of the Truth, a deep transcendent reality common to all, coming to us by different historical, scientific and cultural paths. Affirming that the great teachers of old each passed on their vital message, not just to their followers, but to the whole of humanity, we believe we are spiritually enriched by our mutual sharing.
We are ready to share that richness more widely in the Mountains, catching a glimpse of sacred wonder in our mountain surrounds.
