  1. This amused me, 100 years apart, same nonsense....

    "People are saying"
    "We don't like"

  2. Unexpectedly preaching tomorrow. Just checked the gospel reading.

    Right then I'll be naming a few names then.

    "Very truly, I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs in by another way is a thief and a bandit"

  3. Your annual reminder that today is NOT Easter Saturday. That is next week.

    Today is Holy Saturday as it's HolyWeek. Easter does not start until Sunrise tomorrow.

  4. Any #FediChurch folk out there with Order of Service for the BCP 1928 Revision (CofE)? Just discovered the service sheet I've been given for the service tomorrow only has the responses in it!

  5. The person reading Acts this morning pronounced Ananias as "Anus-sy".

    (I'm no expert on 1st century Palestinian names but I have always pronounced it "Anna-NI-as")

    And honestly it made my morning.

  6. It's not a burning (ha!) issue. But if you are going to argue at length with the vicar over your desire to have a three-colour advent wreath.

    Have the decency to light the right candle on the 3rd Sunday of Advent.

  7. I see the Nigerian Anglican Church has rejected the appointment of the Archbishop of Canterbury. This is predictable from a particularly difficult part of the Anglican Communion.

    The Communion in it's current form makes little sense in the 21st Century and this proves why.

    We really do have to do something about this horrendously troubling legacy of Empire.

  8. I'm slightly in fear of tomorrow's announcement of the new Archbishop of Canterbury.

    Not just because this is a difficult and tricky time for both the CofE and the Anglican Communion.

    But because there is a very good chance my own superb bishop is high up the short-list. While she would be very very good appointment to Lambeth, she would be desperately missed here in the diocese. #FediChurch #Archbishop #Anglicam #ChurchOfEngland

  9. Wonderfully comic moment during the mornings gospel reading where the lovely lady reading had quite the accent. And what it sounded like was:

    "And at his gate lay a poor man named Lazarus, covered with sauce"

    ..."even the dogs would come and lick his sauce"

    Had to cover my giggles with a cough. #FediChurch

  10. Niche Toot:

    Having had to pullout of this week's clergy conference I realise that it is now at least six years since I've been to The Hayes.

    Can I even call myself a Christian anymore?

  11. Any church folk had experience with chums.org?

    I have a parish who wants to use it, but I have my reservations. It claims to be FOSS but is US based and I can't find a privacy policy.

    Not sure how secure data would be on it, suspect it wouldn't be GDR compliant....

  12. I had cause to be at Cathedral evensong. I am reminded that I dislike evensong intensely, cathedral evensong doubly so.

  13. I realise this toot will reach a very tight Venn diagram of niche interests but here goes anyway:

    It turns out the Bartlet method of jacket adornment should not be attempted with a cassock when stood too close to the paschal candle. 🔥

  14. And now having been duly installed by the Lord Bishop @Ratryn has the cure of souls of this parish. #FediChurch #NicheToot

  15. It was with great satisfaction I observed that in the interviews we were conducting today the Bishop was writing in episcopal purple ink. #FediChurch #NicheToot

  16. A conversation about the 1928 Prayerbook revision (yeah I know) has reminded me of this joyful thing offered by my friend Simon a few years ago.

  17. Truly not funny but also simultaneously the best Church Times headline ever! #FediChurch #NiceToot #ChurchTimes

  18. It's 9:30 and I've already had 0hone calls from the Archdeacon and suffragan Bishop.

    Only need the a call from the diocesan Bishop and my senior staff bingo card will be full.

  19. It was a close one, but the most steely but amicable priest in TV land won.

    Though he'd be embarrassed by the whole thing really.

    Congratulations Francis. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
