get back on the road again and visit

people because I’ve missed doing that.

I also want to touch base with some of

the tourist towns and roadhouses and

offer some practical support. I want to

be able to show the community that

as a Bush Chaplain I recognise how

difficult this year has been for lots of

people. And that there are still people

who care about them and want to be

involved in recovering from such a

massive loss for them.

Peter Wait: Life is always uncertain

and we will all hang in there and get

through it. There’s still lots of joy in

the world. Just last week I had a cup of

tea with a couple that I married earlier

this year and soon I’ll be officiating

another wedding. So I still have things

to celebrate and look forward to. And

in the end, no matter how terrible the

world seems I remember that when I

get up in the morning the dog will still

want to get walked.
