ICFRC: Religious Tolerance

Published: Oct. 11, 2010, 10 a.m.

Featured speaker Bishop Mano Rumalshah is Bishop Emeritus of the Diocese of Peshawar in the Church of Pakistan. Raised and educated in Pakistan, he spent his ministerial life equally between England and Pakistan. He is deeply committed to Christian presence and service in the Taliban territory of Pakistan that borders Afghanistan. Bishop Mano and his wife are experienced in developing interfaith relationships and cross-cultural communications. Bishop Mano sheds some light on religious tolerance in relation to being part of a Christian community in a primarily Muslim population.
