My Faith/Your Faith - preview

Frances Blair is a Mormon married to a Quaker. It works very well, she says.

An occasional series of personal accounts


'We claim the privilege of worshipping Almighty God according to the dictates of our own conscience, and allow all men the same privilege, and let them worship how, where, or what they may
  • '

    This is one of the Articles of Faith of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and it is an inspiration to me
  • I started out as a catholic schoolgirl, as my mother and gran were catholics
  • The catechism was our guide and I loved religious education but we weren't encouraged to read the Bible
  • I didn't really do that till I found the Mormons, who encourage you to read ALL good books, not just religious books
