This is the autobiography of a much loved clergyman and missionary. The ministry of Canon John Taylor has seen him working in the Welsh valleys, in busy ports in Africa and Hong Kong, and in the colourful city of Bangkok. His aim has always been the same: to show others the humane and practical ministry of the church, and he began this service as a lay assistant with the Missions to Seafarers in Cardiff. Learning how he could help seamen in their brief sojourns in port as well as the loved ones of those far away at sea was a fundamental stepping stone on his way to ordination and the life of a missionary. Canon John Taylor's stories of his career are shot through with humour and determination, and above all display his belief in a ministry with a practical message of love and help for all God's children.
