The usual eclectic mix at St Botolph’s booksale in Cambridge today. And that’s just a small part of the fiction section. Coffees and teas too! Till 4.30pm

[StBotolph @stbotolphcam]

One of the things to come out of Covid lockdown was these wonderful kneelers. And still increasing in number so a further dedication on Easter Day and more to come!

[StBotolph @stbotolphcam]

It’s the St Botolph’s booksale again. 11-4.30pm today. Busy already, and coffee and cakes going well too!

[StBotolph @stbotolphcam]

Time to send this out again - the fabulous Rachel Tancock window at St Botolph’s. Happy St George’s Day!

[StBotolph @stbotolphcam]

@DeiniolJones69 What a lovely painting!

[DeiniolJones @DeiniolJones69]

Packed Easter Day service today. @stbotolphcam. A relevant lesson and a painting by me on a similar theme. Happy Easter.

A year ago today we set up a people counter and now we are astonished and grateful to find we had 101,445 visitors to St Botolph’s in the last 12 months. Some for services, some for prayer, some for music and some just to look around. This was our Carol Service.

[StBotolph @stbotolphcam]

@acambridgediary What a wonderful picture. And we all enjoyed the benefits of choir practice at the carol service this evening!

@murielzagha @GarlicAndPearls @CapelLofft Thank you! There are even more #hassocks coming and we will be blessing them in our service on Sunday. Once we’ve put the books away!

[Corpus Christi @CorpusCambridge]

Alumna The Rev Dr Cally Hammond (m.1995), Dean of @CaiusCollege will be speaking with Mark Smith tomorrow on the Book of Common Prayer with next door @stbotolphcam. Sherry and cake to follow.

[StBotolph @stbotolphcam]

Slightly stunned to see that in the 4 months since 25 February we have had 35,000 visitors to St Botolph’s. Around 300 people a day to admire the Bodley restoration, the Kempe and Tancock stained glass, the Laudian font and the wonderful facsimiles from the Parker Library.

[StBotolph @stbotolphcam]

A typically eclectic transport section at St Botolph’s booksale today - 11-4.30pm.

[StBotolph @stbotolphcam]

Further demonstrating that there really is no limit to the paths explored in the St Botolph’s booksale today - 11-4.30pm. Coffees and cakes too!

[Capel Lofft @CapelLofft]

The new crime fiction shop in Cambridge, due to open in about a fortnight, is shaping up nicely... You can come & buy some golden age detective novels and visit St Botolph's at the same time! Then go for tea and cake at Fitzbillies (all within a 20 seconds walk of each other)

[Capel Lofft @CapelLofft]

These are the kneelers that Elisabeth and her team have made for @stbotolphcam. Amazing! What an effort!

[Capel Lofft @CapelLofft]

We had our annual parish church meeting at @stbotolphcam on Sunday. Our parish electoral roll up to 57 from 51 (and 45 the year before). Congregations averaging around 50. Income up.

If you give people traditional worship, BCP liturgy and orthodox preaching, they will come.
