We are excited that our first gathering of the year at the Dor Kemmyn Peace Field, will be held on Sunday 6^th April at 2.00 pm.  Qudsia Ward, from the Muslim faith tradition will be leading us with our own Eid-ul-Fitr celebration.  Qudsia writes:

“At Penmount at 2pm on Sunday 6^th April, Cornwall Faith Forum will insha’Allah be learning about and sharing Eid-ul-Fitr which is the Muslim religious festival marking the end of the fasting month of Ramadhan.  Ramadhan this year began on 1^st March and will end on 29/30 March. The following day is Eid-ul-Fitr.    Fasting exists in most if not all religious traditions in one form or another.   Please join us to learn what Islam teaches about the purpose and rituals of fasting according to the Holy Quran and the practice taught by the Holy Prophet Muhammad(saw).  

Weather permitting we can share a picnic together and enjoy each other’s company too”.

We look forward to seeing you there.  Please bring vegetarian food with you.  Hot and cold drinks will be provided.  If you require any further information, please contact Andrew Yates, Chair of the CFF [email protected]

Our next event at the Dor Kemmyn Peace Field is being on Sunday 22nd September at 2.00 pm.

Please join the Baha’i Community with an introduction and exploration of (and hopefully a musical journey!) through some of the more mystical Baha’i Writings ….specifically a Book called the Seven Valleys.

A couple of the songs centre around Writings on Love and Unity and we hope you will join in!

And if there’s time either during the presentation or in discussion over a cup of tea we can share our understanding of the mystical writings and traditions within our own Faiths.

Prayer Flag raising and prayer offering at WESAK ( Skt ) – SAGA DAWA DUCHEN ( Tib )

Thursday 23rd May is the day that celebrates the Birth, Enlightenment and Parinirvana of Lord Buddha, on the 15th lunar day, at full moon of the fourth month. Saga Dawa is also a ‘month of merits’ when the benefits of Dharma practice, and positive action of body, speech and mind are said to multiply a million-fold.

We will offer recitation of the mantra of Buddha Sakyamuni, and prayers for peace with the aspiration that all beings be liberated from suffering, and that each and every being may realise their Buddha Nature.

We will raise the flag of the wind horse and small strings of prayer flags at the Peace Field.

‘ Hatreds never cease through hatreds in this world; through love alone they cease. This is an eternal law.’ Verse 5, The Dhammapada.

Please join us at 5pm at the Peace Field, Penmount and do bring tea, thermos and cup with you!

Advent is a traditional season when Christians prepare for Christmas. A powerful custom at this time is lighting candles as a symbol of light shining in darkness and of good overcoming evil in the world. We reflect on the past while gaining hope for our journey still to come.

This year Cornwall Faith Forum invites you to an early Advent Spiral Reflection for Peace to coincide with Interfaith Week.  People from all faiths and age, beliefs or none, and anyone seeking peace, are invited to light a candle on our spiral, sharing a thought, reflection, reading or prayer on our theme a ’Pathway to Peace’.

We will be making the Advent Spiral together and you might also want to bring with you a LED candle, some evergreen foliage and other Autumn natural items such as fir cones and leaves (make sure you leave our insect/invertebrate friends behind where they live!)

We can also bring vegetarian food to share, affirming our common ground as we learn and build peace together.

We look forward to seeing you there.  For more information contact:
