The 72nd Bishop of Exeter was formally ‘elected’ this morning, at Exeter Cathedral in a private ceremony, as part of a tradition dating back to the 13th century.
This follows the King’s approval of his nomination, announced earlier this month, and precedes the Bishop’s enthronement which is due to take place at the Cathedral later this year.
This process, led by The Very Revd Jonathan Greener, has remained largely unchanged since it was established by King John in 1214.

How cool is this? Our new Shania Train for the Queen of Country Pop, @shaniatwain.
@grimmers Impressed Us Much by revealing the Twain in glittering pink leopard print.
You’re still the one, Shania, and we know you’ll be a festival hit this summer!

Student Finance England apparently cannot cope with twins (or other multiples presumably) applying for student finance in the same academic year. I wish I was making this up. I assure you I am not #twins
@RoyalDevonNHS it was wonderful to have chance to welcome the Lord Mayor of Exeter, @ExeterCouncil , our Dean @ExeterCathedral and many other civic leaders to the RDE site this Sunday to reflect on our vocation.
@JustinWelby@Pontifex Always pleased to see churches working together whether we agree or do not. I wish more would understand the true challenge of the Lund principle (1952) and overcome tribal thinking.
Excellent time in Sheffield seeing the first cohort of students of the NHS funded CPE unit receive their certificates: exciting for professional development of #healthcarechaplaincy !

@revgpp a bit better than this. Just being the family Taxi till 9.15pm. now aiming for some supper. the privelige of our work is sometimes heavy indeed. rest well my friend!
We are so very aware of the funding crisis in the hospice movement- but cutting spiritual care is like taking the soul out of holistic care. Where now do we recommend patients go to get spiritual care (especially if they are not religious?) #justnotholistic
Copied to @bbcsml as little or no media interest in this - or indeed similar decision by @Sue_Ryder to remove spiritual care provision from ALL 7 hospices. Happy to explain the inequalities this brings about. Hospice care without spiritual care- what does this even mean?
I am so sorry to hear this. I am very aware of the acute funding crisis in the hospice movement, but hospice care without spiritual care is a poor echo was good EOL care looks like. @hospiceuk
Received confirmation today that the post I job-share as Spiritual Care Coordinator (Chaplain) for Birmingham Hospice is being made redundant. This is in spite of many members of the community writing in to petition that this core service should be maintained.
