So special to see the #Gloucester Civic Bible whilst spending time in the Mayors parlour today. Presented in 1935 during the Kings Silver Jubilee celebrations by Mr H Leslie Boyce to Gloucester, it has space in it for each Mayor and Sheriff of the city to be recorded until 2035

Yesterday was a day of prayer @stbarnabasglos It was great to get up on the roof of the church and pray over our communities and the wider city. @SarJT @GlosDioc

On a weekend when we celebrate International Women’s day and mark the 5th anniversary of the Covid pandemic, it was a privilege to stand with these amazing women at the memorial in #Gloucester park for a special time of reflection. #InternationalWomensDay #coviddayofreflection

Hugely encouraged that so many gathered @stbarnabasglos to mark the beginning of Lent on #AshWednesday Thankful too for a wonderful message from Michael challenging us to pray expectantly for God to shape the journey. Prayers continue for a good #Lent for us all
