Building bridges of understanding: Burnaby Ismaili Centre | Anglican Church of Canada

Building bridges of understanding: Burnaby Ismaili Centre | Anglican Church of CanadaRepresentatives of the Ismaili community of the Lower Mainland welcomed a group from the North Vancouver Region to the Burnaby Ismaili Centre on Sunday, April 12.

Beginning in the courtyard – designed to reflect the beauty and tranquility of paradise – we were led slowly around its pathways, under spring blossoms, the sound of a fountain drowning out the noise of traffic on nearby Canada Way.

We entered the Centre and Jamatkhana through architect Bruno Freschi’s massive archway, faced with Carrara marble and flanked by sandstone walls.
