We have posted a story from Great Britain about the effects of swine flu (H1N1 Virus) on religious practices, especially those that involve shared vessels, towels and other items in Christian and Muslim worship. Britain has been hard hit by the virus already — many believe it is because of its status as an international travel hub.

For the full story please see our NEWS page.  US religious bodies have been doing preliminary planning in case this flu virus becomes widespread in this country.  There is no need for panic or major concern, but we may all be called on to reconsider how we have traditionally practiced our religions
