Dear Kiersten

I am one of just a few Buddhists in our community of 2000. I am the most visible as I set up and run our local meditation centre since 2007.  Over the years people have seen me walk my talk and now in the last couple of years I have been accepted by the local christian communities to the extent that I am now invited to participate on equal footing with the other various ministers in a couple of the important annual ceremonies.

I have just ordered a book called Jesus & Buddha as brothers by Thich Nat Han in order for me to find more common ground
