I work for the Church of England as a "National Ecumenical Officer". My job is basically about encouraging partership in mission between Christian Churches. It can be fun!

Easter joy breaks from Jerusalem even in midst of the all that is so destructive. The resurrection is given to us not as a comfort but as a calling to strive for all that is for life and peace.

I totally condemn the Israeli missile attack on the Anglican run Al Ahli hospital in Gaza in the early hours of this morning. The last functioning hospital in Gaza City, this was a place of healing and sanctuary. My Palm Sunday ‘hosanna’ is now a desperately sad and muted one. Lord, have mercy.

Bullying (by clergy and laity) can be a major issue for churches and the church is looking at ways to address this. But what can be done about the bully who lies? meristemweb.wordpress.com/2024/03/14/b...

Good to be in Edinburgh today - meeting CofS and SEC colleagues. We were able to attend a service at the Canongate Kirk for Parliament. The Moderator preached about welcome and service.
