“We have been living on the edge of a small village in the South of Portugal
for over nine years. Sometimes, in the stress of the irregular hours and the
eccentric episodes that make up our lives here, we ask ourselves how it all
began, simply to find a culprit…’
Under The Bright Wings tells the story of a pioneering Work in the beautiful
but ravaged Portuguese Algarve. Keenly aware of their Christian responsibility
for the environment and towards their neighbors, Peter and Miranda Harris learn
from scratch about cross-cultural evangelism, community living and
conservation. The A Rocha Christian Field Study Centre and Bird Observatory have
now welcomed hundreds of visitors from all over the world.
‘In the developing ministry of A Rocha an exciting contemporary form of
Christian mission has come alive’ The Revd Dr John Stott
Lavishly illustrated with evocative line drawings, this is a refreshing,
honest and humorous look at how the gospel makes a practical difference to
conservation.
‘A remarkable commitment to conservation, a joyful appreciation of Portugal’s
wildlife and a deep sense of community: read this book’ Tim Cleeves
-Royal Society For The Protection Of Birds
Peter Harris was previously a curate at St Mary’s, Upton. He and Miranda have
four children, who have each played their part in the adventure of A Rocha.
