Friday Prayer Breakfast Guests: An Imam from Bordeaux, a Rabbi from Paris

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Lithuania is hosting the 15th National Prayer Breakfast with the theme “Do Religions Cause Conflicts and Wars?” on November 27 in Vilnius.

“All the great world religions teach us to work for peace, to love our neighbors, to respect human rights and to respect the dignity of the individual. These values unite all the peoples and people of the world. We cannot now stand by and watch attempts by terrorists to veil their crimes in religious convictions and set people of different faiths at odds,” Lithuanian foreign minister Linas Linkevičius said.

Rabbi Levi Matusof of Paris and imam Tareq Oubrou of Bordeaux were scheduled to speak at the event, among others.
