Terrible news today that Southwell Minster could be forced to close its doors as it faces a financial crisis.
It needs more than £20m in building repairs, and is thought to have been insolvent in July.
The Reverend Canon Dr Stephen Evans, only installed as Dean in April!, has said an emergency meeting was called and a report was lodged with the Charity Commission as no accounts had been lodged with the Charity Commission (for two years prior to his appointment).

Many prayers for @ZelenskyyUa

It's not all about the numbers, but I get over 400 in church for Remembrance or Christmas.
Still, bless his new ministry. Another one will be along soon.

I want to like the Apple TV series Silo, but every time I put it on it just burbles away in the background like a dull relative at a dull gathering…

In a world which feels increasingly disordered and chaotic today, at 1pm, I am helping a couple take their wedding vows and enter into the state of Holy Matrimony.
A symbol of hope in a future of love and stability.
