I have to go on being a priest and bishop, that is, to celebrate God and what God has done in Jesus, and to offer in God's name whatever I can discern of God's perspective on the world around - something which involves both challenge and comfort.

Even when I was Archbishop of Wales and working with new bishops, I used to say, not realising quite how true it was, 'One of the things you will do as a bishop is disappoint people'.
(Rowan Williams)
[the same goes for Vicars and Churchwardens…. AD]

We leave this place to live as changed people because we have shared the Living Bread & can’t remain the same
Ask much of us
expect much from us
enable much by us
encourage many through us
So Lord may we live to your glory as inhabitants of earth & citizens of the commonwealth of heaven

When we, by the working of mercy and grace, be made meek and mild, we are fully safe; suddenly is the soul oned to God when it is truly peaced in itself: for in Him is found no wrath.

If there is no friendship with them (the poor) and no sharing of the life of the poor, then there is no authentic commitment to liberation, because love exists only among equals

There are the ‘feed 100 in case 1 of them would otherwise starve’ people.
And there are the ‘Starve 100 in case 1 of them doesn't actually deserve their food’ people.
Far too many who claim to follow Jesus fall into the second camp.
(Rev Daniel)

Using the rosary
Repeat a verse from your Daily Bible Readings to take with you during the day
Give a bead to those on your prayer list using it to "hold' each person as you pray their name
Pray around your parish a bead per street
As an examen at days end
Just hold it or let it hold you

The freedom to which we are called presupposes going out of oneself, the breaking down of selfishness & all that supports selfishness; the foundation of this freedom is openness to others
The fullness of liberation (a free gift from Christ) is communion with God & with other human beings.

Don’t be afraid
Be sprouts of peace where the seed of hatred & resentment is growing
Be weavers of unity where polarisation & enmity prevail
Be the voice of those who have no voice to ask for justice & dignity
Be light & salt where the flame of faith and the taste for life are fading
