A former vicar's memoirs about her daughter who died in the July 7/7 bombings have been turned into a BBC drama, to mark ten years since the tragedy.
Julie Nicholson's daughter Jenny, who was 24, was one of 56 people to die in the terrorist attack on the London Underground.
Nine months later, Ms Nicholson stepped down as the vicar of St Aidan's and St George's churches in Bristol.
A dramatisation of Julie's memoirs about her daughter, called A Song For Jenny, will show on BBC1 on July 5th.
Ms Nicholson told The Independent: "I can't pretend I have much forgiveness in my heart for the person who took my daughter's life.
"I don't feel it's my right and privilege to offer forgiveness. The only person who can do that is my daughter who is not here.
"I had to work within myself at not hating and I am quite honest about that fight but I don't trouble myself to think about forgiveness."
A Monthly Gift Of $11 Makes A World Of Difference
In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.
Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.
For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.
Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
