Hope it has all gone as well as it could. Indian sounds like a good way to finish the day. Been praying for you all today.

Really enjoying having birds on our feeder regularly. A record this morning of 7 parakeets at once!

Prayers for you all today.

Enjoy! We were there last Thursday for the day!

You may be able to use/adapt the service here for blessing Church furniture. All from the Methodist Worship Book: media.methodist.org.uk/media/docume...

We are around and would be lovely to see you. I’ll send a DM

Did you get off at Alnmouth? It’s where we got off today but coming up from the South!

Looks like a great place to stay!

I’m just coming to the end of 4 and a bit years as parent governor and more recently Vice Chair at J’s school. We work really well as a board because of the different perspectives and have also seen staff governors as vital. It can be challenging but I’ve found it rewarding.

Prayers for you all. Remembering that Mr Wesley’s words … best of all God is with us.

Congratulations & Happy Easter. Hope you all have a lovely day celebrating.

I’m travelling by car rather than train this weekend … amazing how big the to take pile has suddenly got!

I use Tax Management for Clergy and they are fab.

Delighted that the first people on stage at Wholehearted (a Methodist Church event) were the safeguarding leads and the room welcomed them with a cheer. So important that safeguarding is front and central.

Waiting for the first train of the day to London for a meeting of the Connexional Council.

Such an important rule!

I’m always glad when that happens Friday or Saturday and not on Sunday morning!

Rewilding the Church by Steve Aisthorpe Lots to offer for ministers and churches wanting to explore what it is to be the church in a new season - a timely book

There’s a review here: www.baptist.org.uk/Articles/612...

Have you read Rewilding the Church? Would be fascinating to see how much crossover there is.

Happy New Year 🥳

Happy New Year Everyone!
Here’s to 2025!

Looks lovely. Hope tomorrow goes well.

Hope it goes well. You both have my upmost respect for moving at this time of the year.

Enjoying Catan expansion pack which Jethro got for Christmas!

Thanks for sharing @rachelp1.bsky.social and @lizcrumlish.bsky.social such an important article and so lovely to hear the bold step Methodism took with supervision spoken of so highly.

I’d encourage all in ministry in @churchofengland.org and beyond to hear Ruth’s cry for supervision for all. Maybe Methodism sharing this with our Anglican colleagues is a deep expression of the Covenant between our denominations.

An excellent article from Ruth Layzell about Pastoral Supervision and the many blessings and benefits it is to those of us who minister in @methodist.org.uk Being supervised, offering supervision and supporting those training as supervisors is now such a rich part of my ministry.

That is the way to play Ticket to Ride!

Delighted to add some snowflake lights and a tree to the 2025 Christmas Display thanks to the closing down sale in Homebase.
