INTERFAITH FAMILIES
Our MPV community has always been committed to welcoming interfaith couples and their children.
One of MPV’s ten principles is Diversity.
MPV embraces pluralism and the diversity of inspirations that motivate people to embrace justice. We affirm that one’s religion and belief system is not the exclusive source of truth. We engage with a diversity of philosophical and spiritual traditions to pursue a more just, peaceful, and sustainable world.
MPV understands there are many types of relationships and seeks to provide a place for families of all kinds to grow and prosper.
We hope you will seek out our MPV community as your spiritual home. It is a space where friends and family members will be welcomed, where different religious/philosophical traditions are treated with equal respect, and where celebrating multiple holidays happens!
