Mayor Rick Moore Organizes Interfaith Council

Payson Mayor Sees Need for Various Faiths to Work More Closely Together

On March 1, 2013, Payson City Mayor, Richard D. Moore announced his intent to organize the city’s first Interfaith Council.  Members of each of Payson’s faith traditions will be asked to participate, both by serving on the Council, and also by engaging in its activities, which include events such as monthly lunch gathering; conversations; community service projects; an annual Onion Days Prayer meeting, etc.

The Interfaith Council’s first gathering will be an organizational meeting to be held at the City Offices located at 439 West Utah Avenue, Payson, Utah 84651 at 12:00 p.m. Tuesday, March 26, 2013.  While Mayor Moore’s Office will be sending out invitations to participate to the various religious organizations registered with the City, there are most certainly individuals living within our city who worship outside of Payson City, or within the confines of their own homes.  The Mayor would like representatives of these faith traditions to also participate.  Thus, the City requests your help in spreading the word.  If you know individuals whose religious tradition is different than your own, please inform them of the creation of the Council, and invite them to attend the March 26th meeting.

Questions or comments can be directed to Mayor Moore’s Office or you may contact Michael Hardy at 801-885-4120.
