Enter the Buddhist Faith Fellowship, a warm sanctuary born in 2001 when seekers gathered in a Bristol apartment to hear ancient teachings rise like a gentle dawn. Under the guidance of our dharma teacher Rev. Lewis (Senpai), M.A., we weave a unique vision, blending the clarity of Thièn Lâm Tế (Linji/Rinzai Zen) with the heartfelt pulse of Shin Buddhism, guiding all from Zen-inspired effort to Shin-inspired surrender. For over two decades, we’ve grown, offering gatherings, workshops, online courses, and outdoor practices to touch the living Earth, turning suffering into radiant awakening.
