Do we know how many churches are alliance affiliated?

I love this reception child’s interpretation of a Christingle from my visit to one of my schools today. A new take on a classic!

I know a young lad who wants to read Theology. He’s likely to get BCC at A-level. Most interested in philosophical theology. Would prefer middle to northern England. Where would you recommend?

I read Gwen Adshead’s book ‘The Devil You Know’ a couple of years ago and it was excellent. So really looking forward to hearing these lectures.

My friends, I bring you the Inclusive Orthodox starter pack (if you'd like to be added, let me know—to be added you need to affirm the Apostles' and Nicene Creeds w/o crossing your fingers and affirm the full inclusion of women and LGBTQ+ folks in the full life of the church). 🕯️

We have so many Inclusive Orthodox folks on Blue Sky, we filled up the first starter pack and had to create another. If you don't think you've been added to either, and want to be, respond here. 🕯️

Thank you. We picked the date to coincide with the town lights on- so now their musicians are coming to us as they can’t perform outside. So that’s one nice thing!

But to do you say the Filioque?

Whenever we plan a church fair you can guarantee a storm it seems!

Hepple appears to want to be interviewed for something. Nothing to do with the dog treats I keep in my top drawer.

Would be grateful to be added!

You should make this your profile pic!

Really enjoyed being with my Squadron Air Cadets tonight doing Padre Hour tonight. Loads of really good engagement thinking about Nuclear deterrents and proportionate responses to situations we face. Canny group of teenagers!

Encouraging to meet with both of the #RE leads in the 2 primary schools in my parish today to get dates in the diary and think about what we can do next year.

6. We have 7 named ones to help us learn that the whole world is sacramental.

Digital hymnal on a desk with fireplace in the background.

With no organist now in our church the Pcc invested in a digital hymnal a couple of months ago- which gives us more flexibility than pre-recorded music. Each week one of my tasks is to program it. This week we’re being adventurous and trying the ‘Brass Rock’ setting for the Gloria! #Hymnalplus

Nice to have company when you’re in your study! Particularly nice when the company is sleepy and not barking at every passer by!
