The aim of the creating a walking church developed from the difficulties of taking children to church on a Sunday morning, and from the need to be with God in the places that we naturally find ourselves. As I enjoy walking (short walks of course) and live in such an amazing place, I decided to see if others would also like to see if church can be a reality in such a different environment. I found a few others who are in similar work and family positions to myself – and we have now had quite a few walks together – some with children aged 2 to 11 years, and sometimes only with the few adults that are taking this journey with me.

One of the challenges for me is maintaining the blog – having never ‘blogged’ before, and keeping journals only for personal use – it is a new way of being for me - and as you can tell, I have not kept the blogs upto date – so I am catching up from my personal diary of our journey so far.
