We welcomed an incredible 650 people to St Theodore's Church between our two school carol services today! Thank you to the students and teachers of Cwmfelinfach Primary School and Ynysddu Primary, who are still smiling and singing after a long term, and also to the families who joined us ❤️

Settled in for a couple of days away with @_hannahrowan to celebrate my graduation tomorrow ❤️ We don't get away often, and this is a welcome rest in a busy season; I foresee much gratitude and tea in my future!

#NewProfiIePic Only sixteen and a half years after my first MA graduation, I'm an MA graduate again! If they gave hoods and gowns for most supportive spouses, @_hannahrowan would be a prime candidate; without her I would have been tempted to give up 💜

Christingle for Candlemas; a beautiful end to our Christmas celebrations. Light and joy, laughter and singing, and some brilliantly insightful suggestions about what the elements of the Christingle might represent ❤️

Despite the ferocious rain, The Gathering 🏳️‍🌈 had a wonderful day at GowerHeritageCentre screening Fruits of the Spirit in the smallest cinema in Wales! Profound conversations, and a real sense of God's love for the LGBTQ+ community from both audiences. The Spirit is moving ❤️

Somebody was asking the other day about the relationship between christofascism and evangelicalism in the Uk - and how it is not only a US issue. This exposé shared by the mighty Trades Union Congress exposes the owner of GB News a major player in Revitalise Trust and HTB Church

I've been thinking exactly this. Given this result I want to hear as much from the Greens as from Reform, both directly and indirectly, in all political broadcasting.
