World Religion Day

January

World Religion Day is held on every third Sunday of January. It is held to create awareness and bring together the different faiths and beliefs.

Did you know there are over 4000 recognised faiths in the world!!

It is difficult to understand or familiarise yourself with all the Religions of the World. However, World Religion Day is not about understanding the difference between all of the Religions but to simply acknowledge that there are other Religions and we are all entitled or expected to follow and believe differently.
