Letters: The Duke used his role for pioneering engagement with faith groups

SIR – The Duke of Edinburgh, a man of private faith, also used his role to bring together different faith groups. He founded St George’s House in 1966 as a forum for civil society, faith groups and others to debate significant issues.
For many years he presented the Templeton Prize, which recognised outstanding religious and spiritual leadership. He organised an interfaith dialogue between Jews, Christians, and Muslims in 1984, together with Sir Evelyn de Rothschild and Crown Prince El Hassan of Jordan.
He built on this by founding the Alliance of Religions and Conservation in 1995 to mobilise the great faiths to work on environmental challenges. He had the foresight to see that their moral teachings, and 80 per cent of the world’s population, could be part of the solution to social problems.

After surviving a cardiac arrest, Joella Bobak doesn’t want to take a chance with catching COVID-19.
The emergency medical technician and firefighter was among the region’s first emergency responders to receive a coronavirus vaccine on Thursday.
“It was an incredibly good motivator,” Bobak, 52, said after receiving the injection Thursday at Richland Family Health Center in College Park Plaza.
“We all know people now who have been affected by COVID-19 and who have lost family members,” Bobak said. “This is something we can do to change things. Let’s do it right now.”
