Power of our prayers
10:00am Thursday 16th February 2012 in Letters
For me, the prayers before a council meeting (Saturday’s Oxford Mail), are important, not particularly because I am a Christian, because the content would be acceptable to anyone of any religion.
We pray for the safety, health and well-being of all members of the community.
Most beneficial is the timely reminder that decisions should not be a way of scoring political points, rather they should benefit and improve the lives of the residents, workers and visitors of the parish.

I think you'll find it was the one who have no religion, who objected.
