The Forgiveness Project

Winter has been a busy time for The F Word! Since our last report, the exhibition has been seen in St Michael and all Angels' in Harrow, Burpham Church in Guilford, and the University of Gloucestershire for a special event for National Interfaith Week. In the last few months the exhibition has been seen by over 700 people!

“It was very special…. .The whole week was very moving and a great thing to do as a community.” 

“Very moving, thought provoking and humbling.”

“It had a profound impact on many people. It began lots of conversations and some difficult about people's situations. I learnt many realities of people’s lives I was unaware of, there are some amazing people around here. Many a tear was shed and I had to put extra boxes of tissues around! …. Thank you for all you do and the powerful influence the exhibition has on so many various lives!”

“Amazing. So very moving. Thank you.”

“There were very positive comments about how interesting/moving/informative the exhibition was. Lots of students stopped and read one story and then moved on to read several more…”

We also had an exciting opportunity for the stories from The F Word to be seen even further afield. From 19th to 30th November a selection of stories and images from The F Word were translated for ‘Pardon, par don: Transformer La Peine’, an exhibition in Metz town hall in France.

The F Word is what led to The Forgiveness Project being founded as an organisation, and as we celebrate our 15th anniversary this year, we are honoured to have been able to share the powerful stories of forgiveness in the exhibition with so many people all over the world. We couldn’t have done any of this without your support and we can’t wait to share with you all that 2019 will bring!
