The CEYC was supported by the National Youth (latterly & Children’s) Officer (before the post was made redundant) and by the Diocesan Youth Officer network for many years. It’s good to see some national resource finally supporting young adults at synod again.

General Synod welcomes new Youth Representatives | The Church of England Motion finalises 2025 commitment to amplify young adults’ voices in decision making

Good to see that General Synod has finally reinstated the participation of young people. I worked alongside the later disbanded C of E Youth Council & saw their value at Synod both for the Church & the young ppl involved (many have continued to serve the church in various roles)

Ok folks, so later this year I am teaching Church History & one task I set students is to put a series of church events in order. I have 50 events which I am considering revising. So... what would be your top 5 events in Christian History (after the events recorded in the Bible). GO!

Mandy Ford, Dean of Bristol Cathedral, speaks out! “Where, among our bishops, are those with the courage to act from love, who are willing to risk the breaking in of the Kingdom?“ togethercofe.org.uk/dean-of-bris...

Thank you!

On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me, a partridge in a pear tree. Ate it.

Yesterday I was honoured to be made an honorary canon of Gloucester Cathedral. The bishop described the role as an ambassador between the diocese & the cathedral.
I was touched that both former & current students came to support me along with my CGH team Alison & Nigel, Bp Humphrey & good friends.

Thank you to everyone who has bought my new book and for the kind comments about it. If anyone has bought it and is willing to put a review on Amazon, I’d really appreciate it as it helps with the algorithm. @scmpress.bsky.social
