More than 60 years since he was ordained as a priest and now well into his 80s, Francis Chadwick looks back on the highways and byways he has explored through an eventful life. He has spent his life travelling in two senses; exploring other lands with his family, and examining his own faith. Although he has sometimes found his belief challenged by personal tragedy, it has remained strong; through childhood, military service, family upheavals and many experiences in his work. "Each one of our lives comes with a roadmap... we all need some sort of faith to lead us on our way. We need vision and determination to survive the challenges repeatedly thrown in the path of our human existence. We also need humour and courage and the ability to reflect, but above all the capacity to hang on when the going is tough".
