WELCOME
The Monash Interfaith Gathering (MIG Inc) was created to contribute to the harmony of the Monash community, by promoting positive relations between people of different faiths, beliefs and cultures, including those with no religious beliefs. The Gathering seeks to build bridges between people through greater public awareness of the teachings, customs and practises of the world diverse faith traditions as practised in Victoria. The MIG recognises that the relationships between people of different faiths and cultures must be grounded in respect and mutual understanding, which support the uniqueness of each tradition and encourage co-operative action. MIG Inc supports the right of individuals in Victoria to freely practise their faith. MIG is open to all individuals who support the aims and objectives of the Gathering.
Monash Interfaith Gathering (MIG Inc) is sad and totally disappointed to note the vandalism which has recently occurred attacking a place of worship. We stand in solidarity with the worshippers of the church involved and condemn any such acts of violence. It is particularly difficult to understand, given that many of the worshippers so affected were involved in supporting those less fortunate members of our community.
