About This Resource
A young U.S. Muslim is leading a global interfaith movement. In a memoir on the Muslim Journeys Bookshelf, Acts of Faith: The Story of an American Muslim, the Struggle for the Soul of a Generation Eboo Patel relates how he embraced an ecumenical faith-based activism and became founder and executive director of the Interfaith Youth Core. A Chicago-based nonprofit, IFYC seeks to engage youth and college students to perform community service in company with young people of multiple faith traditions as a way of realizing the goal of genuine, active religious pluralism.
