23 years ago I was running the Mrs Cranmer ticket to get any women elected. Today #melbsynod legislated for equal gender representation, lay and ordained, on Archbishop in Council. Alleluia!

After a full debate with many different opinions, the motion opposing “Gay Conversion Therapy” passes. As per the mover, Craig D’Alton: “Gay and lesbian people do not need to be healed. They need to be loved” #melbsynod

@MelbAnglican “Even the dogs ...” #melbsynod I’m still looking forward to your blessing one day and in the meantime pray that we will continue to be a blessing to you.

@jkforsyth @nigelfortescue Maybe we need to up the game. Xylophone?

[Peter Sherlock @TheProseClerk]

And the promise of further diversity measures to come. Amen!

[Peter Sherlock @TheProseClerk]

Could we have a smoking ceremony to open #melbsynod in 2019?

[Peter Sherlock @TheProseClerk]

@jkforsyth @nigelfortescue 1 flourishing to Prof Sherlock = 1 coffee to pew 16 thanks 😉☕️ #melbsynod #sydsynod

@Salcathguide Oh and I just realised - this is Samson slaying Philistines (strength) - Judges 15

[Peter Sherlock @TheProseClerk]

@Salcathguide I felt gifted ...

[Peter Sherlock @TheProseClerk]

@Salcathguide 1 Kings 3:3-15 was the hard bit ... "an understanding mind"

[Peter Sherlock @TheProseClerk]

@Salcathguide Working out exactly which biblical scenes these all are was the nerdiest thing I've ever done

@ChristyCapper I didn’t make it but I did amend it.

[Peter Sherlock @TheProseClerk]

Things at #melbsynod might move more quickly tonight if my plane home from the Council of Deans of Theology is delayed much longer ...

[Peter Sherlock @TheProseClerk]

@jkforsyth @nigelfortescue But I’d like a long black please every time I get flourish into an amendment speech on Saturday 😍 ☕️

@robynjwhitaker It all starts with the sign of the cross in baptism, takes root in the wearing of a wedding ring and culminates in the ringing of bells you know.

[Peter Sherlock @TheProseClerk]

@robynjwhitaker I hesitate to point out Robyn that this is an episcopalian Synod ...
