Spirituality

    Interdenominational religion in action

    I think our little intersection corner of Pukerua Bay must be the most religious in town. By 10am our neighbour had gone off to the spiritualist church her family goes to; the Methodist church immediately next door on the other side had the full Tongan congregation there (beautiful singing as always); and I was upstairs here doing some Buddhist prayers.

    This is how religions should accommodate each other. Not every religion will work for everybody; when we find one that touches our hearts, we should be able to explore it.
