Omaha, Nebraska (ENInews)--Omaha, Nebraska may not be the place that
some imagine as fertile ground for the prospect of the three Abrahamic
faiths
finding common ground but, the vision of such peaceful co-existence
has taken a major step towards becoming reality. The Tri-Faith

Omaha announced on 13 December that it has completed the purchase of
four adjacent parcels of land, amounting to about 35 acres, on a

also include
single-family homes, an assisted-living facility, office and retail
space and a hotel. [712 words, ENI-11-0691]
