Interfaith Alliance of Colorado is thrilled to announce that Colorado Governor Jared Polis has proclaimed August 9th – 15th 2026 Interfaith Awareness Week! The proclamation acknowledges that “interfaith awareness, understanding and cooperation affirms and protects our constitutional rights and our multi-faith democracy” and “the work of building harmony and mutual respect among people of faith and conscience is vital to the flourishing of our communities.” You can see the full proclamation below.
In honor of Interfaith Awareness Week, Interfaith is joining groups from across the country and around the world to proclaim the importance of peace. We are participating in the 10th annual Interfaith Awareness Week Presentation Series, featuring forty zoom presentations over seven days featuring presentations from Nigeria, Australia, Chile, Brazil, Israel, England, Canada, and the United States.
On August 14, 2026 at 9:00am – 10:30am MT, Interfaith’s team will present on “Justice is What Love Looks Like in Public”: Civic Engagement as a Tool for Peace. “ This session will examine how justice, love, faith, and civic engagement are tools for peace building. We will be joined by four fabulous community leaders to discuss how to put these tools into practice.
