“Come all you travellers tired from the journey, come wait a while, stay a while, welcomed you’ll be”
From the song Vagabonds by Mark Edwards, Phil Baggaley and Stuart Townend

On the journey

About this blog
I have started this blog as a way of reflecting on the journey I am on – what’s new, what’s the same, what I am leaving behind and where I might be heading.

I have recently started a leadership training course with Church Mission Society (CMS) for Pioneer Mission. The quote on this site is from one of my favourite songs, Vagabonds. It sums up my take on what it means to live life with Jesus.
“Come to the feast, there is room at the table”
