God is always with us. It’s easy to forget, but so important to remember. As we approach #Ascension and #Pentecost, may you be blessed with the sense of His presence.

A special #Easter message from HM The Queen: “The discovery of the risen Christ on the first Easter Day gave his followers new hope and fresh purpose...

“As dark as death can be, particularly for those suffering with grief, light and life are greater.”

[David Walker @BishManchester]

Please join me and the people of @ManCathedral at 10.30 today, for our Easter Service on Facebook live from Bishopscourt. The tech may be shaky, the background plain, but the Risen Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forever. Alleluia!

[Karen Openshaw @ChaplainKaren]

“Lord Jesus Christ, Grant us this day the same joy in your resurrection that Mary (Magdalen) knew, and may we, like her, belong forever with you. Amen” Thank you ⁦@BishManchester⁩ for #youaremine #blessed #Easter #Titian #alleluia #HeIsRisen

Another incredibly apposite reflection for our times @BishManchester #youaremine “Help us not to be afraid of things for which there are no simple answers, but to abide with you, until the light dawns from above. Amen” #waiting #SundayIsComing #nowandnotyet

[Gareth Noble @GarNob]

The strongest minute of current affairs TV since #Corona19 started. Well done @maitlis and all at #Newsnight

[Karen Openshaw @ChaplainKaren]

@ottleyoconnor Happy 80th birthday Patrick’s dad! Now I see where your son gets his tenacity! His parents #joyinallcircumstance

[Karen Openshaw @ChaplainKaren]

How incredibly apt for this time is today’s reflection #youaremine @BishManchester. Indeed it’s when life has been toughest I have felt #Jesus closest. “Lord Jesus, we thank you that you never desert us in danger. Be close to those in fear & peril today” Amen

[David Walker @BishManchester]

Here’s a link to a prayer for the Prime Minister, other coronavirus sufferers, and those caring for them. I wrote it for Premier Radio this morning. Looks like even more prayer needed now.

[Karen Openshaw @ChaplainKaren]

Am loving and really connecting with #youaremine - today’s really interesting too - talking about crowds! My scripture this morning Lamentations “How deserted lies the city, once so full of people!”

[David Walker @BishManchester]

I wrote these words for today in my @brfonline book “You are Mine” over a year ago.
“Things will have to get worse before they get better. But it is still worth working and fighting for a better world...in the sincere belief that we can make a lasting difference”
Very true today.

[Karen Openshaw @ChaplainKaren]

@ottleyoconnor Absolutely hilarious! Go Hurricane,

[Karen Openshaw @ChaplainKaren]

Incredibly apposite reflection in today’s @BishManchester #youaremine. As Christians we mustn’t be “so heavenly minded that we are of no earthly use” #political #pastoral #changemakers #mission #Jesus #Lent

[David Walker @BishManchester]

For a change, here’s a heart warming story about an @DioManchester vicar who’s blowing his own trumpet

One of the greatest compliments I was ever paid, by a Muslim friend, was “Karen, you see God in everything” I love today’s #youaremine reflection on St Francis of Assisi - he did just that.Thank you @BishManchester. #calminthechaos #lovelikeJesus
