These are some of the questions under consideration by the Board of Directors and Advisory Council of Interfaith Partners of South Carolina. IPSC began four years ago as a statewide interfaith organization. The partnership includes ten religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Native American Spirituality, Paganism, Unitarian Universalism, and the Baha’i Faith. IPSC’s mission is to foster understanding and cooperation among the religious groups in South Carolina.
