Blurb

"Travelling with the Saints" is a volume of poetry which marks the St Asaph diocese Year of Pilgrimage commencing in May 2013. Poets featured come from across the diocese - from Bistre to Bala, from Prestatyn to Pennant Melangell. The theme of pilgrimage has been treated in many different ways - from a real sense of place, through struggle to joy, but all share the idea that we are "people of the way", making and transforming ourselves. It is hoped that it will prove to be a source of spiritual encouragement to all those who seek to make theoir own pilgrimage, however they interpret the word.
