About Us
At Sharing Sacred Spaces, we see people as interconnected through our common humanity. Stressors such as misunderstanding, bias, and polarization tear at the fabric of our relatedness and prevent the ability of our communities to work together, feel connected, feel cared for, and thrive.
Sharing Sacred Spaces was launched to build these thriving communities, to help people experience the joy in the experience and the process, and to train people in the tools to constructively and proactively navigate and quell conflict should it arise. We do this through educating and training congregations, local groups, and individuals in our unique and immersive curriculum that cuts across religious and other kinds of difference, and opens up profound new insights and feelings of solidarity.
Our hallmark program is The Interreligious Communities Project, which is volunteer-run in cities across the United States and Canada. We also offer a menu of digital resources-- from documentaries to online modules-- that examine and build religious literacy through the notion of sacred space and architecture.
