Good analysis
A day @churchofengland.org to pray for vocations. A weekend @queens.ac.uk to meet with those already exploring on one of our Anglican Open days. A privilege to meet with them and hear their stories. Praying for all those discerning God's call at this time.

Great book launch for Bishop of Dover, who trained at Queen's Foundation. Inspiring as ever - her story is a celebration of faith & courage, and of a pioneer as the first black female bishop in @churchofengland.org. Also a reminder of how much further we have to go #racialjustice @queens.ac.uk
A long anticipated book. A wide range of contributors and perspectives. Looking forward to attending the book launch!
On Friday we were delighted to welcome the President and Vice President of the Methodist Conference, the Revd Helen Cameron and Mrs Carolyn Godfrey. This was a rare and special occasion when both full-time and part-time Methodist ministerial students were able to share together.

A special evensong @lichfieldcathedral.bsky.social in which the wonderful and deserving Robert Mountford, Ecumenical Development Enabler for Birmingham, the Black Country, & Staffordshire, was presented formally with his award of the ‘Lambeth Cross for Ecumenism’. @lichfielddiocese.bsky.social
And my own personal thanks to all who made the event this week such a celebration of all that @queens.ac.uk has been and is, and were part of rededicating this remarkable ecumenical Foundation in its vision to be diverse, challenging and Gospel-focused!
