What Else Should I Know?

  • Don’t let your Interfaith Circle get too big. 6-10 people can hold a great discussion, but bigger than that becomes a different sort of event.
  • Be aware that many religions include a vegetarian or no-pork and no shellfish diet. Some religions avoid alcohol. Some people have allergies which are not just inconvenient, but can be deadly. Consider who will be part of your group, then locate and serve accordingly.
  • How often? As host, it’s completely up to you. You may want to do something monthly. We’ve had former interfaith meetups that lasted for years. Ideally, Interfaith Partners of SC would like to be able to direct interested people to a circle somewhere any month of the year.
  • We have lots and lots of potential discussion questions we will share with you. Interfaith Partners of SC may announce a topic around which we suggest all Interfaith Circles have concurrent discussions.
  • You should call your gathering an Interfaith Circle, part of Interfaith Partners of SC, though you might call it the “Pickens Interfaith Circle Potluck” or the “Claflin Faculty Interfaith Circle Breakfast,” for example. Use the logo graphic we provide in your invitations and other communications.
