In the interest of full transparency and accountability, the North American Regional Coordinator has asked that the 2008 Regional Work Plan be posted on the website: 2008 URI-NA Work Plan. This document guides the goals and budget for regional staff and support during the fiscal year. It was produced through close collaboration of staff, Trustees, and CC leaders.
Margi Coles of the Interfaith Council of Washington, a URI Cooperation Circle based in Seattle, Washington, writes in about an event covered in their local newspaper: Saturday Presentation in Bremerton: ‘We Have a Lot in Common’ Between Islam, Christianity: “This event was sponsored by the KUUF Social Justice Committee and the Interfaith Council of Washington. These are the sorts of events the ICW has been fostering here for a couple years now, and this is the best attended one ever, due to the excellent organization and preparation of KUUF and the Islamic Educational Center of Seattle. This is the kind of event that opens doors to understanding and peace.”
