It is eye-opening how hard it is to get in contact with others and set up meetings. We all lead busy lives, each with our own set of events, priorities, and interests. However, the times that I have been able to meet with youth individually or community organizers, it makes it all worth it. As a young adult, I am encouraged and excited by the enthusiasm that surrounds interfaith dialogue and service work. It makes me hopeful that in the future, people of diverse backgrounds will not only have the tools to talk about their differences, but will want to do so. The youth want to get this going and expand what we are trying to do into their communities. It has inspired me to think of ways that I can improve my own interfaith club in college.
