On Saturday February 18, 2023 our Honolulu Universal Peace Federation held an interfaith event at the  Seventh Day Adventist, Hawaiian Mission Academy from 3 to 5pm. This was our 5th annual World interfaith Harmony Week event.  In past years we did the water ceremony and during COVID we did a candlelight prayer service on Zoom. We thought we would try something different this year to mark our return to in-person events. Interfaith Trivia: Tell me something about your faith that I don’t know. Not as a game or competition, but as faith representatives simply sharing something interesting, funny or unique (but factual) about the founder of their faith or their religion. Opening chant by our Kahu (Hawaiian priest & Ambassador for Peace) Faith Presenters: All the Major religions were represented except Zoroastrianism.
