Peace in Luton

The peace of our town, Luton, is being challenged by the views of a few that seek to polarise the rest of us. As Christians and Muslims our commitment is:“in the face of extremist minorities that seek to separate us, we are united in the teaching of both our faiths, to love God and love our neighbour as ourselves.”

Peter and Anne Adams spent Summer 2008, the Olympic Season, in China. While there they wrote regularly on things they saw and did, people they talked to, and news articles they read.
