You've all seen the pictures of the devastating fire at St Mark's, Hamilton Terrace in St John's Wood. They will be holding a service tomorrow morning outdoors, complete with choir, at 10.30am, if anyone wants to go along and show support.

How long will some local churches and whole denominations keep throwing the LGBT+ community under the bus - with no thought of the human consequences - just to appease a judgemental minority, to attempt to hold onto an empty ‘unity’, or to keep the membership money flowing?

@BobHartmanshop I just want to thank you for the wonderful pop-up Nativity you wrote for this years @biblesociety. We had so much fun last Sunday in a multi generational telling of the story @stlukesholloway

So she said that’s ok don’t worry! I said I don’t. She then said that she had a friend who stutters and he’s really intelligent! I said Wow!

Just walked into my local pharmacist to pick up a prescription when asked my name - I hesitated slightly over my surname - as I often do - the receptionist asked if I was sure! I looked puzzled and she said because you hesitated- I said I have a stutter 1/2 #stamma

[John MacKenzie @mackthevicar]

Lovely to see you - this is me!

[Revd Dr Ayla Lepine @heartchitecture]

When I’ve got a Sunday away from @StJPiccadilly I go to my local parish @stlukesholloway. It’s great. Today’s Eucharist was especially great thanks to @MartinWroe preaching about this altarpiece and recommending an arty book too. @JohnMckenzie17 @Rhiroberts @lukesitalsingh

@AshfordTwinning Very sad to hear this new - May he rest in peace

[The Campaign for Equal Marriage in the CofE @campaign_cofe]

The Communion will not survive this. It seems that the first published draft, now revised, of the Call on Human Dignity has provoked a row that will sunder the Communion. This is on those who framed the original & stirred this up in the past week. It could have been otherwise.

Drinks giant @CocaCola says it’ll keep trading with Russia. Fine. I won’t keep trading with it.

Goodbye @CostaCoffee and @SchweppesGB tonic water.

@BBCSport I feel that this is the wrong decision and could damage the amazing work that the Paralympic movement has achieved in recent years

[John MacKenzie @mackthevicar]

@Fern_Britton Amen 🙏
