On our View from Earth blog this week, we have the second part of our memorable “John Cameron looks back” from 2004.
“Sandra’s Diary” tells the story of a unique Jewish-Catholic school in Scotland, and Gail looks at the supposed rise in religious hate crime in Scotland.
In the news, churches across Scotland have marked the terrorist horrors in Spain, Finland and Russia and the natural disasters in Sierra Leone, Madeira, India and Bangladesh.
The Catholic church in Scotland is mourning the death of the priest who conducted the funeral of Princess Diana’s mother, the much loved Canon Donald Mackay of South Uist and Oban. Also in England the sad news about Cardinal Cormac Murphy O’Connor and in Pakistan the passing of Sister Ruth Pfau, the German born nun who became known as the Mother Teresa if Pakistan for her work in combating the spread of leprosy.
