Hope all went well - I remember my own tour in 1977... & have never regretted it!

The first time I met Rogers, I didn't know who he was. I asked him what he did for a living and he said he was a caretaker.

I have always loved that.

Indeed... he is in a downward spiral. The synopses suggest anniversarial doom!

In a service dating back to medieval times, was good to be part of the Chorister Bishop and Canons making service @yorkminster.bsky.social on Sunday (which alternates each year between girls & boys choirs electing a bishop). Best of all was being able to listen to Bishop Liam's cracking sermon.

I spent a number of years as a HIV nurse. By then, the meds meant people could live full lives, but the stigma still existed. And access to preventative measures & meds varies

This #WorldAidsDay, as I lead prayers at @mancathedral.bsky.social, I'll be praying for justice, awareness & reduced stigma

Last night I had an adventure, heading off to preach at Deanery service in Kenley.I did get rather lost walking from the station (country lane, no lights, no signal) but had a lovely time on arrival
Also loved the on screen typo "Hail thee as our MATHLESS King".
Knew God was on my side there πŸ˜€

Cracking bit of Geordie hymnody this morning, as we sang 'Rejoice, the Lord is King' at both churches:
"the keys of death and hell
are to wor Jesus given".

As I contemplate a sermon about prayer, I'm reminded of Mother Mary Clare, Reverend Mother of the Sisters of the Love of God in Oxford

She advised that the nuns were struggling to find words to pray, they could simply say

'Here I am God, what a mess'

I've used that advice a lot over the years

Giraffes, the tallest animal on Earth, help ecosystems thrive by feeding on upper plants, letting sunlight reach lower vegetation across Africa’s savannahs.
