Author description

The Northumbria Community is a dispersed network of people, hugely diverse, from different backgrounds, streams and edges of the Christian faith, united in their desire to embrace and express an ongoing exploration into a new way for living. In this respect the Community follows the rich tradition of monastic communities through the centuries.
