This was brilliant! Thank you to all who organised or presented.

So you got your PhD as a babe in arms, according to AI!!!

Good news! The wonderful staff at @lner.co.uk found it and he got it all back, including his bear!

Can you help find my son’s much-loved bear?

It was in a black suitcase taken from the Edinburgh to Kings Cross train, departing at 15:30 today. Suitcase was gone when the train arrived in London. Also in the case, a colourful pillow, clothes and meds.

I do that too - must be ADHD!

Me too!!!! Yay!

It’ll be as an unpaid volunteer, or SSM, alongside working full time (ish!)

The labyrinth at Wydale Hall in the Diocese of York where the Stage 2 panel took place.

I am really chuffed to let you know that, following a couple of days of discernment/assessment (Stage 2) last week, I have been recommended for ordination training in the Church of England.

This was very useful. Thank you!

Very sorry to miss this….

Looks amazing!

There is something about the power imbalance 1-2-1 that is very unhelpful and where issues often start… but Jay and his Bishop, that’s a huge power imbalance.

Absolutely. It’s a whole new category of vulnerable.

Telling that Jay was in discernment…

For me it’s telling that Jay was in the discernment process. Given the power imbalances, especially with a bishop, I wonder if there ought to be a special safeguarding category related to the vulnerability of those discerning vocation?

This is one of the biggest tragedies in our history. A preventable disaster if the government had put in the correct guidance and still five years on they are still telling us to wash our hands for an airborne virus. This virus is not mild. 1 in 10 have long covid and rising.

It’s beautiful!

This is just ridiculous!

Interesting. I’m doing research part-time but in a very different field to my original PhD. I’m now publishing work in peer-reviewed journals but people seem to want the PhD in this subject to take it seriously.

My DDO sent out a word form for us. Mine has just gone in.

Horrific!

Today, the world mourns the passing of Pope Francis.

He inspired millions, far beyond the Catholic Church, with his humility and love so pure for the less fortunate.

My thoughts are with all who feel this profound loss.

A prayer for Pope Francis, on a black background with graphics of a cross and a candle. Father in heaven, we praise your name for all who have finished this life loving and trusting you, for the example of their lives, the life and grace you gave them and the peace in which they rest. We praise you today for your servant Francis and for all that you did through him. Meet us in our sadness and fill our hearts with praise and thanksgiving, for the sake of our risen Lord, Jesus Christ.

A prayer following the death of Pope Francis. 🙏

Lovely to see how the world could be!

Thank you! I’m presenting after lunch…

Isn’t it amazing?

Hello!

Excited to be here!
