It's one of the greatest challenges on Earth; an ascent to the top of the world on the slopes of Mount Everest.
Eric Alexander experienced grace and a faith-empowering journey he will never forget as part of a record-setting team in May 2001, scaling the heights of Everest with his friend, blind climber Erik Weinhenmayer.
Eric has learned much about faith, trust, prayer, depending on God, as well as perseverance during these climbs. A member of a rare and adventurous group of achievers, he has been instrumental in helping others, often with physical or mental disabilities, to achieve their own dreams as well.

Miss Arabella Braithewaite of Switherby knows there is no future for the ten orphans—a remarkable mix of genteel and working class children—she has gathered together in these years of England’s grim factory growth in the early 1820s. Her plan, quite outrageous in the eyes of most, is to take the children to Australia to take up a land grant. Thus, one day the townsfolk gather to watch a line of departing “pilgrims” led by the fearless “Missabella.” On a new continent, and after a daunting ocean voyage, the challenges begin. To the orphans it becomes a life-giving adventure, even when serious unexpected threats must be overcome. Australian author Eleanor Spence, writing with keen personal insight, sketches each child and adult’s engagement with the new land and its people and with one another. From their courage we glimpse the futures of this unlikely band beginning to emerge with hope and personal dignity.
Follow the further adventures of the 'Pilgrims' in
Jamberoo Road.
