ABOUT MFNN
Never before in history has there been such a diverse mixture of religions like we see today. But do we know how to get along well? We’re building a new way of relating to one another and investing in the currency of relationships – mutual trust.

We believe that when Pastors, Imams, Rabbis, and other religious leaders come together to learn from each other, they become models for their own faith communities. By way of example, they remove fear and increase understanding within their own tribe.
