Exit from Catholicism
In 1969 I was studying for teaching at De La Salle Roman Catholic Teacher Training College at Hopwood Hall, Middleton, Manchester. I was in my third and final year. The college was run by the De la Salle brothers, Vatican 2 was in progress and there were welcome winds of change blowing through the institution.

I had been baptised as an infant and had attended Catholic schools throughout my education from convent to grammar school. I had been told that I was a child of God and a member of God’s true church on earth. I had faithfully gone to mass each week but had begun to question the church’s teaching after meeting a Brethren couple a few years before.
