@glamvicar 2 years today since I ’retired’ from stipendiary ministry and not regretted the decision for a moment. It’s lovely to have the opportunity to minister to congregations without being responsible for them.
I am not sure that it’s appreciated just how terrifying things are for the charities sector right now. Multiple announcements just this week about how many are closing/ scaling back services. Ones that are saving lives every day in so many different ways

Death is always lurking.

Even today there are tombs to be opened, and often the stones sealing them are so heavy and so closely guarded that they seem to be immovable. Some weigh heavily on the human heart, such as mistrust, fear, selfishness and resentment; others, stemming from these inner struggles, sever the bonds between us through war, injustice and the isolation of peoples and nations. Let us not allow ourselves to be paralyzed by them! #Easter
