Charleston Interreligious Council

Charleston Interreligious Council Decades later, after facilitating dialogue beyond the Christian and Jewish traditions, the board of directors decided to change the name of the organization.

The Charleston Interreligious Council is an organization that seeks to build bridges of understanding to promote sensitivity, tolerance, respect, and fellowship among people of all faiths. The Charleston Interreligious Council (formerly the Christian Jewish Council of Greater Charleston) is an organization that seeks to build bridges of understanding to promote sensitivity, tolerance, respect, and

fellowship among religious groups. Founded in 1979, a group of pastors and Rabbis decided to gather in their homes to facilitate conversation and better understand each other’s faiths, thus creating a space of respect and harmony. They needed a new name that better represented the Council’s work and its mission, including the broader diversity of religious traditions in Charleston. In 2018 the board voted to change its name to the Charleston Interreligious Council. The work of the CIC is expanding through programs and events daily. We welcome you to join us as we grow and learn about the history and the diversity of Charleston. There are many ways to get involved in our work.
