“Wow, listening to Havens led me on a beautiful, spiritual journey of creation, care, discovery and wellbeing. Congratulations Nick and your creative team for such an amazing gift which I am delighted to fully endorse. Havens has reminded me to count my many blessings one by one and to look for God's presence in all things, especially creation, people and music. We look forward to playing tracks from Havens at Christ Church Swindon, reminding people what a wonderful world we have been given to cherish, share and pass on to those who come after us. My prayer is that each of us will find through this wonderfully inspired and creative music our own special Havens. Every blessing and thank you.” - The Revd Canon Simon Stevenette, Vicar of Christ Church with St Mary's".
