Methodist Touchstone Project in Bradford
 The Faith to Faith project of the West Yorkshire Methodist District is based at the Touchstone Centre Bradford. Touchstone describes itself as
“A movement of faith expressing the good news of Christ through the words, deeds and lives of those who share a vision for the city”
Through the Faith to Faith project Touchstone puts these words into action. This project aims to build good relationships and understanding of faiths and cultures in Bradford by providing them an opportunity to interact with each other, share hospitality and increase religious and cultural literacy in the area.
Some of the interfaith activities which enable people in the churches and communities to meet each other are:
-
Interfaith Writers for Peace,
-
Interfaith Women Group and
-
Interfaith Prayers Event, during the “Week of Prayer for World Peace”
One of the resources published by Touchstone Staff is the “Golden Nuggets” prayers from a Pennine City, WYS books No.16
The interfaith activities that occur are published every four months in a Faith to Faith newsletter, quite often it is featured in Urdu magazines and newspapers.
