20 Years of Building Understanding
Twenty years after its founding, the Tri-Faith Initiative continues to demonstrate what is possible when people of different faiths come together to build relationships and understanding.
In a recent feature, Omaha Magazine looks back at the initiative’s 20-year journey and the vision behind its unique Omaha campus, where three houses of worship representing Judaism, Christianity and Islam share space and community.
But as Interim Executive Director Lisa Fox explains, Tri-Faith is about more than sharing a campus. It’s about creating intentional opportunities for people to build relationships, understand one another and live as neighbors—where differences are respected, similarities are recognized, and everyone feels they belong.
“Tri-Faith Initiative‘s mission remains as important as ever,” said Rick MacInnes in a recent Facebook post. “It’s about more than sharing a campus – it’s about building relationships, embracing our differences and creating a community where everyone belongs. In a world increasingly divided by faith, politics and fear, the work of building understanding, hope & a sense of shared humanity has never mattered more. Grateful for the legacy and commitment to what lies ahead.”
