Meet Brian!

Meet Brian!—A bright young teen in Houston who is eagerly submersing himself in Houston’s Interfaith Community.  Brian and his family have long been involved in the Catholic Church. His maternal uncle is a priest in California, his maternal aunt is a member of the Dominican Sisters and Brian is a student at Jesuit College Prepatory High School.

 This fall, Brian attended his first iTeen XChange Dinner. The iTeen XChange Dinner is a respectful environment for students of all faith traditions to discuss their beliefs.   At this dinner, Brian met for the first time, a student from the Jainism tradition and learned more deeply about the Jewish faith and other sects of Christianity.  He commented of his fellow students, “All (the students) were from different backgrounds, it was so cool! I was surprised at how dedicated everyone was to their faiths.  Everyone there really listened and tried to understand each other.  I have never been treated with such respect and from a total stranger too!” 

Interfaith Ministries’ iFaith Teen XChange dinners are only possible because of supporters like you. You understand how impactful experiences like Brian’s can be.  This important work can’t be done without your financial support.
