Dear Mrs. Berrah
I was very impressed by your dedication and commitment when I had the honor of meeting you 7 years ago. I did not have the opportunity to meet your late husband, Dr. Ghoulem Berrah, but when I learned about his work and achievements, I was so delighted to see in him a great example of a Muslim leader. He was proud of his faith, married to a devoted Catholic, and devoted his life to spreading peace among all people. His book “A Dream of Peace” is a life-changing book. It contains a wealth of wisdom and encouragement for all people of good conscience to promote a world full of peace and love and free of hate and bigotry.
The Dr. Ghoulem Berrah Foundation led by Mrs. Marguerite Berrah is a continuation of what Dr. Berrah began. I believe that the power of religion can be used as a major force of unification among divergent factions, and hence it can play a key role in the promotion of global peace and reconciliation. Thank you, Mrs. Berrah for creating a friendly environment for a multi-faith dialogue that can break down walls of division and the barriers that stand at the center of numerous wars, with the objective of achieving peace.

“Dr Berrah’s life work of multi-faith relationship building is his greatest legacy. Although I never met him, his work inspires me and a new generation to work even harder to build foundations of peace, respect and love among people of different faith traditions. To believe in God is to see the Divine in one another, especially when we differ in our beliefs and practices. May our mutual efforts and intentions lead us to contribute a sense of shalom, salam, peace into our broken world.” Rabbi Robyn Fisher

“Chirstians, Jews and Muslims worship the same God even if they use different names or titles. All are children of the one God and each should wish the others peace, Shalom, Salam , which means that each person wishes the others only the best of everything.
The Berrah Foundation encourages this unifying relationship which benefits all. Members of the various Churches, Synagogues and Mosques, especially the clergy, are called to support the Foundation, in particular Mrs. Marguerite Berrah the President.”

“I met Dr & Marguerite Berrah when they moved to Denver, Colorado. Dr. Berrah was a devout Muslin and Mrs. Berrah an equally devout Roman Catholic. Their extraordinary devotion and respect of each others religion made a lasting impression on me. Dr. Berrah was always willing to share his faith with the boarder community enabling us to better understand “our common faith.” – Sharon Stewart
