Faith: Christian
Why did you become involved with the Cornwall Faith Forum?
As Cornish Christians my husband and myself belong to different traditions – Church of England and Roman Catholic. This difference has enriched our relationship for over 30 years and given us an insight into the value of diversity. Being part of Cornwall Faith Forum has enabled us to understand and appreciate other religious traditions.
We are able to explore our differences with respect and celebrate the many aspects of faith and spirituality that we share in common, building precious friendships while working together for understanding and peace.
