| Introduction | I am a retired librarian. People fascinate me and I like helping to find answers. I have been an organist and choir director in the Anglican and Catholic church although I am a Catholic and I used to serve at Westminster Cathedral. My wife and I met in the Philharmonia chorus and sang with them for 38 years. We have 3 wonderful grown-up children and 3 lovely grandsons. I am very committed to ecumenism and interfaith. Reconciliation is so important in the world today. I organise the Westminster cathedral interfaith group and co-ordinate Laudato Si' animators in England. I paint in oils. I have completed an MA in Christianity and Interreligious relations at Heythrop College part-time over 2 years and I am a trained spiritual director. |
