The Nashville Chapter of the Religion Communicators Council has
announced a new series of meetings, beginning in September.
The Religion Communicators Council (RCC) was formed in the 1920s
to promote “excellence in the communication of religious faith and values in
the public arena and encourage understanding among religious and faith groups,”
according to the RCC website. As such,
the RCC is the oldest interfaith communications organization in the United
States. In Nashville, the RCC Chapter is shifting the style of meetings to
maintain the organization’s historic integrity while adjusting to 21st
century ideals.
Beginning in September, Nashville’s RCC meetings will consist of
more open dialogue and communication among members about hot topics and current
events. This shift comes after the organization’s executive committee did a
survey of members and found that they were looking for more participation.
According to the President of the Nashville Chapter, Rev. Brian
Fesler who also Pastors the Nashville Church of Scientology, the chapter
meetings will take place on the second Tuesday of the month over breakfast. “The
concept for these meetings will be to bring diverse people together to dialogue
about hot topics and how we can unite to bring more inspiration and good news
to the world,” he said.
The RCC has members from every faith group and walk of life
including Baha’is, Christians, Jews, Muslims, Scientologists, and more. For
