This book will help you to understand the backgrounds to the key festivals, ceremonies, and practices of the major world religions, participate in the main holidays and festivals of the different religious calendars, know what to expect and how to behave when invited to attend a Protestant, Catholic, Christian Orthodox, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Sikh, or Buddhist service, and join in the family celebrations of friends from different backgrounds. Armed with this basic information, you will feel relaxed enough to enjoy the occasion-and perhaps inspired to discover more about the spiritual world view of another cultural tradition.
