Survived driving the car on my own.

I didn’t get the memo about not opening the windows when it’s cold, though, so today was also the day I learnt out how to re-seat the passenger side glass in its cradle before I rolled it back up! Thankfully none of the components seemed to be damaged.

How was worship for you today?
Prison Chapel was full to bursting, and boy were they up for a sing! Preached on Jeremiah and Luke: Christ the King who dies on a dung heap, and his *TODAY* - we who call on his name are welcomed into his kingdom of love and justice. #CofEPeeps #CofE ✝️⚓️ #chaplaincy

Just back from evensong and singing the collect for the Sunday before Advent which is where the whole “stir up” Sunday originated
It’s Stir-Up Sunday and so, as tradition decrees, my Ultimate Christmas Pudding is #RecipeOfTheDay. I have converted many Christmas pud haters with this, which is due not to any brilliance on my part but to the treacly magnificence of the Pedro Ximénez sherry in it. www.nigella.com/recipes/ulti...

I don’t deny it: there is something unattractively boastful about calling one’s own recipe “ultimate”. But having soaked my dried fruit for this pudding in Pedro Ximénez — the sweet, dark, sticky sher...

Those of you work full time and then are either an ordinand/ordained minister or self supporting church worker, what practical steps have you found helpful in ensuring, where possible, your unpaid work tasks don’t bleed into work time?

I spent a delightful few minutes in the company of a flock of these adorable wee Bumbarrels at Lesnes Abbey Woods yesterday. I am also pleased to discover that another old name for Long-tailed Tits is Mumruffin.

The fact that abuse of people who are not deemed sufficiently “vulnerable” according to several categories is deemed not a safeguarding matter is simply insane. Everyone deserves to be protected from abuse, not just those who fall into certain categories. #CofEpeeps #safeguarding

Made some delicious sausage rolls and hand pies this evening for H using a gloriously orange Ukichki Kuri squash from a local market gardener, Sosimix, a mix of veggie hard cheese and cheddar, sage, all wrapped in shortcrust. I also made some little veggie ‘meatballs’ with the remaining filling.

Go to celebrate the God who is our home forever.
Go to follow Christ's example in loving God, self, and neighbour.
Go with the Holy Spirit to change the world with love.
Go to seek God's kingdom in all you say and do.

Please watch & more importantly share this very cheeky, rather urgent request for £15k (ideally in one lump sum!)

I'm only on Bluesky so if anyone can post on any other social platforms that would be hugely appreciated @churchofengland.org @dioceseofyork.bsky.social @churchtimes.bsky.social Thanks🙏

Sad but facinating post this monument has been removed. I’m glad locals are looking to remedy it.

Alt text: a large country park that houses the Netherlands American cemetery. A stone courtyard and monument are flanked by trees and as then grass.
1/ Eleven Dutch parties across the political spectrum from socialist to conservative have issued a joint appeal to a provincial government to build a memorial to Black American soldiers who died in World War II, to replace one removed from the Netherlands American Cemetery. ⬇️

My response to the third FAOC report... on clergy exemplarity and Same-Sex Marriage.

"Indeed, with the concept of ‘communally regulative understanding of doctrine’, the bishop is rendered powerless, and the bishops as a House are disempowered utterly."

Car is now taxed with the help of the nice person at the post office! Now just need to sort break down cover. I can opt in for a basic free version from the AA but want to compare the available options first.
