Liberal Democrat Christian Forum

Wishing a very Happy Christmas and a blessed New Year to everyone.

The writing is a bit pale but it says ‘I don’t believe in you. I believe in Jesus Christ my savior who gives gifts to people who are bad’. Saved by grace. Love it.

Sad news
We in LDCF are shocked & saddened by the sudden death of Baron Andrew Stunell of Hazel Grove on 29th April. Andrew was not just a member of LDCF he also served as one of our honorary vice presidents until very recently. We have emailed all our members and supporters to let them know but we’re now aware that many of the emails were identified as spam. Please contact the office if you would like us to resend the email.

You may well has seen in the press that the LDCF Exec has written to the Equality & Human Rights Commission requesting that they investigate the treatment of David Campanale. We have been supporting David for more than two years and really hoped that it would not come to this. We have written to our members today explaining why we took this step. Please contact the office if you are a member & have not received the email.

LDCF Members - check your inbox - we've sent you an email with an invite to take part in our membership survey. We would love to hear from you to help shape our future!
