Organization
The Interfaith Network
History
The Interfaith Network started originally as The Interfaith Council of Washington as an informal group of people from fifteen religious traditions who organized a "Peace Through Harmony" Interfaith Service in 1986. Their purpose was to increase understanding between members of different faiths and within the larger community.The members of this original group formally organized the Interfaith Council of WA as a registered non-profit organization in March, 1989. It changed its name to The Interfaith Network in 2009 in order to better communicate its current mission. Today, it continues to welcome individuals, as well as organizations, from all faith tradtions into its membership.
