ABOUT US

The Southwest Interfaith Alliance is the outreach program of Sr. Rebecca Therese, Founder and Director of Sisters of the Heart.

Sisters of the Heart is an ecumenical  community of mature women who have come together for personal contemplative prayer, communal support and community service.  Located in Tucson, Arizona, we feed the homeless and provide spiritual companionship to the 'Street Community' while working to bring faith traditions of all natures together in service to humanity, nature and earth.

Sisters of the Heart views dialogue between its members and people of other faiths as an opportunity to listen to others, to develop mutual understanding and mutual trust, and to share our commitment and faith with others, while respecting their commitment to their own faith.

In Sisters of the Heart we consider love of a Supreme personal God to be the highest form of religious expression, and we recognize and respect this expression in other theistic traditions. We respect the spiritual worth of paths of genuine self-realization and search for the Absolute Truth in which the concept of a personal Deity is not explicit. Other communities and organizations advocating humanism, ethical, and moral standards are valued as being beneficial to society.

Sisters of the Heart members are encouraged to be respectful of people of faith from other traditions and to see the need for people of different faiths to work together for the benefit of society as a whole and for the glorification of God.
