Celebrating our love for Canada together

So very exciting to be a part of this spectacular event yesterday and very cool to see it on the news too. There were over 400 people and so many smiling friendly faces to photograph!

Bedford United Church and the Al-Rasoul Islamic Society Mosque have been neighbours for years, but this event marked the first time we held a formal interfaith service celebration together.

Here are a couple news links if you are interested.

I was wondering how to reply to this, then I saw Maggiemaes reply took the easy way out and said, I agree with above.

That's how it should be.

Thank you Maggiemae, Peter and Kathy.

I'm glad you don't let the actions of a few determine the way you feel about an entire group of people. We have more similarities than differences. :)

What a great event and a great picture as symbol for it.
