Seychelles Interfaith Council (Sifco) message for New Year 2023

‘May the diverse faiths living in harmony in Seychelles be an expression of peace and unity’

“The Seychelles Interfaith Council (Sifco) wishes to convey to the people of Seychelles a message of peace and unity.

“May the diverse faiths living in harmony in Seychelles be an expression of peace and unity.

“Peace is not only the absence of war but equally important it is the respect of one another’s rights and responsibilities and belief. It is having the courage to adapt to change. It is our willingness to persevere in doing what is morally and spiritually right. All these virtues indicate strength rather than weakness. “May the peace we all hope for bring opportunities for growth and achievement throughout 2023.

“Unity is not uniformity. It is the sharing of ideals which culminates in a common destination. While diversity is an asset which allows us to discover our full potential, we need to appreciate that there is room for every human being to contribute to the betterment of the world. No one is an island. Our desire to see a better world needs to be driven by a spirit of collaboration and respect rather than division and competition.

“Sifco wishes everyone a prosperous and blessed new year 2023.”
