My colleague at church offers an annual event, Be Loved, this time of year where folks come together to share love poetry to the divine and to enjoy eating and making chocolates together. It was a lovely and delicious afternoon. #Anglican #Chocolate

Here's my review of 'Conclave', which I very much enjoyed. For me at least the film is a letter of love and hope directed to the Church, offering challenge paired with encouragement. Ralph Fiennes is incredible, and so is Isabella Rossellini.
Anglican Church in Angola & Mozambique
-------------------------------------------------------------------
The #Anglican Church has installed a new primate for the province of #Mozambique and #Angola in the person of Vicente Msosa, the bishop of #Zambezia
Congratulations to Bishop-Elect Nicholas Bundock, the Rector of St James and Emmanuel, my church home-away-from-home in Manchester. He was recently elected the new Bishop of Glasgow and Galloway in the Scottish Episcopal Church. #UK #Scotland #Anglican

my sermon for today – on the forces that push us apart, and how we might instead embrace what Jesus offers us – release from captivity, the true unity of the Body.
Trump a qualifié de "méchante" l'évêque épiscopalienne de Washington, et lui a réclamé des excuses, au lendemain d'un sermon dans lequel la prélat s'inquiétait de la peur semée par le président chez les immigrants et les membres de la communauté LGBTQIA, réclamant de la "miséricorde" au nouveau président. Un discours qui a ulcéré Trump, décidément peu chrétien... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yy5oJCz5KbA
Arrests and deportation of #anglican
(equivalent to #episcopalian in #us and #scotland ) clergy for speaking up about inhumane government policies were used by the authorities in #southafrica and what is now #Namíbia during the final decades of #apartheid . Most famous case #Colinwinter who was #Bishop of #Damaraland .
#History Rhyming yet again?
A prayer I wrote yesterday for Martin Luther King, Jr. for the Prayers of the People at St. James Cathedral in #Chicago.
Our community is a bit unique in that at our 11am service, individual parishioners write the prayers of the people. Each week it is different depending on the intercessor but still reflects the structure within the Book of Common Prayer.
I wonder how much the
Cathedral pays in #CouncilTax and how many wheelie bins they have
Thanks @RollingStone for a GREAT article about the National Cathedral and the #Episcopal Church. A positive but balanced story beyond the typical narratives.
IDK that they have Matthew Shepherd's ashes. His parents were concerned that no matter where is grave was, it would be desecrated by the Westboro Baptist Church. The Cathedral volunteered to keep them safe.

First meeting this evening of what I hope and pray will become the parish youth group.
Explored Gen 2-3 (Eve and Adam and God) drawing on Dr Linn Tonstad’s famous paper reading it as a theological exploration of adolescence, and then we watched the movie Barbie together. Fab!
John Dod, Puritan minister, on pure religion from James 1:27. Charity is not totality of religion, but sure sign of faith. God would have children of God respected and relieved.
Today, is pity something that some in the church are trying to de-prioritize?
How can you be pitiful and liberal towards the Children and Saints of God?
The innocents
A #poem for 27 Dec

Two thousand years and miles away
a foretold child was to poverty born.
A tyrant willed to keep his sway
and murdered children in his scorn.

@realTuckFrumper It's dangerously clear that the #christian churches have been criminally operating as institutionalized #pedophilia for far too long.
What makes this case different is, as per the article, England does not have a separation of church and state and the #Anglican religion is deeply intertwined with other parts of #society.
Last week, we asked about what we are waiting for. This week, we take a look at how we do the actual waiting part.
