Finding faith on a warship
Rev Louisa Pittman is a female chaplain who helps sailors find faith on the frontline. Follow her as she carries out her duties on board a warship.
大象传媒 Faith and Ethics reporter Claire Jones has been granted exclusive access on board British warship HMS Northumberland while on deployment to the North Sea.
As Russian troops continue to invade Ukraine, Claire explores faith on a warship, and whether armed forces personnel can 鈥榝ind their faith鈥� in times of trouble or unrest.
The military chaplain onboard the warship is Reverend Dr Louisa Pittman, one of three female chaplains in the Royal Navy. She caters for all faiths, never carries a weapon, and holds no rank so the captain or a junior rating can speak freely.
Claire follows her as she carries out her duties and hears from sailors onboard about what their faith means to them in times of conflict.
