Robin Williams, for every movie he filmed, asked the production company to hire at least 10 homeless people to have jobs. During his entire career, he helped around 1520 homeless people.

Today after 41years of full time Ministry I'm retiring. There is no retirement in God's service so here's to the next chapter

After 41 years of full time Ministry I'm retiring on 23rd June with this special celebration. But there's no retirement in God's service or in being a freelance Minister #Calling #Ministry

[Rev Martyn Travers @mptravers]

So blessed to have learnt from and led a multi cultural Church. It's hard to let go coming to retirement but excited by a new chapter of freelance Ministry #Orpington

[Rev Martyn Travers @mptravers]

Retirement seems to me to be an exciting opportunity but also a scary step into the unknown.The countdown is on #Retirement

This news of more right wing racism in our political systems is sickening. We need not just a General Election but a change of hearts & minds #racism

To turn the vote on a ceasefire in #Gaza into a protest about Parliamentary procedure is a tragic indictment #ceasefire

Helping others in our community through the cost of living crisis #Orpington #Welcome

[Archbishop of Canterbury @ArchbishopSarah]

The relentless bombardment of hospitals and civilians in Gaza is intolerable. It’s against international humanitarian law - it must stop and stop now. The misuse of hospitals by Hamas does not justify attacks by Israel. Two wrongs don’t make a right.

The situation facing staff and patients in Gaza’s hospitals is catastrophic. Everything must be done to restore its healthcare system and protect those in desperate need. 

I pray especially for the courageous staff and the patients of the Anglican-run Al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza. 

Please hold our Anglican sisters and brothers, and all the civilians of Gaza, in your prayers.
