It has been a pleasure to spend the day in Rochester Diocese, joining with churches and congregations to witness all the ways that God is at work here.

"I see the PCC as that pillar that holds the church..."
Hear from PCC members at St Jude's Southsea about what their role means to them.
This week we're saying a huge thank you to people who volunteer their time in the Church. Thanks for the huge difference you make!

Inspire in us, Lord Jesus,
the faith and fortitude,
the courage and constancy,
to reveal you to others
in all situations
by our words and our ways,
by our actions and our attitudes.
Give us courage
to speak and to show
the truth of your love
to power and to pauper.
In the @UKHouseofLords today I held a debate on the impact of artificial intelligence on human relationships and society.
AI will shape many aspects of our lives in the years ahead. It brings significant opportunities, but also raises important questions about connection, dignity, truth and what it means to be human.
#MorningPrayer
Work in us, Lord Jesus,
by the gift of your Holy Spirit,
that our inner life,
our motivations and passions,
our desires and dreams,
may be one with yours.
May the outward expression
of our discipleship
reflect an inner reality
of love for you
and for our neighbour.

to the love you show us,
and shine with its light
to brighten the world
and the lives of all people.
Let us not be swayed

Day by day, Lord Jesus,
you offer to us yourself,
in the sacrament of
your Body and Blood,
through which you ordained for us
a sign of your solidarity with us
to the end of the age.
As you infuse us
with your own life,
also inspire us
to live out your love
for all.
