In December 2015, Abrahams Children, a subsidiary of the Interfaith Council made up of Maplegrove United Church, Shaarei-Beth El Synagogue and CSRDN Muslim group, welcomed the Al-Balkhi’s, a refugee family from Syria. We are working this year to help them acclimate to their new life in Canada. Please be in touch for consultation on how to help sponsor a family.

This short symphonic documentary offers a glimpse into the unique religious co-existence found along No. 5 Road in Richmond, British Columbia. Highway to Heaven takes audiences into many of the temples, mosques, and churches that call No. 5 home, revealing unity despite difference across these diverse cultural spaces. In a world struggling with religious violence and intolerance, filmmaker Sandra Ignagni has crafted a gentle portrait of a rare landscape using attentive imagery and an acoustic tapestry of prayer.
