OTHERS CONSULTED & BOOKS READ

I will give you thanks in the great assembly;

among throngs of people I will praise you.
Psalm 35:18

In addition to the church leaders and Fresh Expressions people visited on this FX pilgrimage and noted in this blog, God also enabled me to have time in one setting or another with each of the following Fresh Expression leaders. ( FEAST = Fresh Expression Area Strategy Team).

Thank you all for so very much.
