Ahmadiyya holds a number of open events each year to promote better understanding of its place in the community.
Imam Mansur Ahmed was invited by church leaders to answer questions about Islam and to remove misconceptions.
The mayor urged civic and faith leaders to organise more inter-faith events, to increase awareness and understanding of each other’s beliefs.
