Inspired after leading this event focusing on the local and regional #ecumenical journey. Love my job.
It’s been wonderful to spend 24 hours with this group of ecumenical officers and representatives from across England who’ve been learning about local unity working and opportunities. Thank you for all the wonderful stories you’ve shared.

An exciting morning so far and it’s only 8am! I have been asked to speak at a conference this coming summer and my teenage son got himself ready for the day before I even got out of bed. No nagging required. I am honestly not sure which has made me happier 😁.

“Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.” Ephesians 4.

These verses have been following me this last few weeks. Something to aim for.
