Reflecting on Holy Week: all services up in numbers, especially younger people, and lots of conversations with folks finding themselves deeply and surprisingly moved.

Something is stirring — deep calling out to deep, in the midst of the chaos and violence of our world. ❤️‍🔥🙏

The happiest of Easters from the best of boys.

He’s very happy his mums made it through Holy Week in one, tired, joyful piece. ❤️‍🔥

Spotted: vicar in Booker.

Holy Week is ace. Let’s go, triduum. ✨

Highlight of #SST25 so far:

*walks into coffee*
‘Oh, hi Molly! We’re just talking about the side wound.’

So seen. ✨

At @greenbeltfestival.bsky.social, dreaming up the good stuff. Lots of hope in the making. ✨🌈

An amazing privilege to ash, to bury, to pray, to break bread and break open the redeeming love of God, this first Ash Wednesday as a Priest.

Very happy little priest here after a gorgeous Eucharist for the Baptism of Christ, ft. plenty of holy water and a plough blessing. ✨

Epiphany Carol loveliness at @TewkesAbbey yesterday evening.

Proof of my ang-cath assumption that more candles is good candles. ✨

So. Very. Nearly. There.

Bopping our way through a stunning Grace Petrie gig was a brilliant way to a) mark a year civilly partnered to my beloved and b) reignite the fire to work for justice and love in this broken world.

Thanks, Grace and co., from the queer priest contingent. 🌈💪

Fantastic visits to two of our church schools this morning, talking about trust, play and listening.

Our fantastic teachers and children are so engaging, inspiring and kind.

Slowly getting my head around this new online space, but in the meantime, today is brought to you by:
- a very good dog
- a large amount of tea
- finishing writing for @churchtimes.bsky.social, @collegeofpreachers.bsky.social and @bbcradio4.bsky.social
