5:00 - 6:30 PM: Jewish Student Panel
The world is the birthplace of many faiths and has accommodated and nourished multiple religions. It has provided a common roof to major religions for their sustenance and growth. The intricate mosaic of diverse faiths, beliefs, traditions, and languages in many countries is indeed amazing. Underpinning this diversity, is the role that religion and spirituality plays in society to promote human development, fine art, social development, and cohesion. At McGill University, we have the privilege of experiencing these diverse faiths practiced by our diverse student population. For these students, their faith, religion, and spirituality permeates everything, hence being informed about their religion is paramount as it endows one with deeper insight about it. MORSL is pleased to launch a series of discussions aimed at raising awareness of the religious and spiritual student communities on our campus, and generating opportunities to get to know each other better through meaningful dialogue. Crucial for this discussion will be the understanding of their faith/religion as a whole, and the role it plays in their personal and public life.
