BREAKING: The New York Times Editorial Board just released this piece endorsing Kamala Harris. This is huge.

This is an urgent and important intervention by my fellow bishops and I support them in it.
The oppression, violence and discrimination against Palestinians in the West Bank, including Christians, must cease. The Israeli government is not above the law and must stop acting otherwise.
Steadfast Christian families such as the Kisiya family, whose ancestral land has been forcibly stolen from them, remain especially in my prayers. We continue to stand in prayerful solidarity with our Palestinian Christian sisters and brothers as they resist the injustice of occupation.
“The forceful dispossession of the Kisiya family – and many others – from their land is illegal and immoral.”
Bishop @Guli_FD joins three other Church of England bishops in arguing that the Israeli Government must stop acting as if it is above the law. buff.ly/3zizblx

Hi everyone, I’m afraid I bear some sad news. Most of you will know Dave has been fighting cancer for the past couple of years. Last night, on 28th February 2024, with Lili, Dave’s wife, his family, close friend David and myself by his side, he passed away peacefully at home. All who knew Dave are devastated at his passing. His beloved wife brought him such happiness as did her children, Iza and Sergiu who Dave loved like his own.
Personally, I am not sure I can put into words on how I feel at the moment. My best friend is on a journey that for now, I can’t follow. I will miss him every day and the bond and friendship we shared over half a lifetime. I wish you god’s speed brother; you are and will remain a beacon in this world. See you on the other side. Love ya.
I know Dave and his family would want me to thank all of you who sent messages of support in recent times. It meant the world to him, his family and all The Hairy Bikers team. I am sending you all much love and gratitude for those simple acts of kindness, generosity and spirit. We are eternally grateful for them.
May I ask you all for one further kindness and allow Lili, his wife, his family, close friends and I some time and some peace to process our huge loss. I am sure I will see you all soon.
Love Si x

The only route out of this pandemic is #VaccinEquity.
We must end stockpiling and get vaccines distributed in countries that need them most.
The choice is vaccine nationalism or human solidarity.

The way I see it, God is not a Christian, a Jew, a Muslim, a Hindu, a Buddhist or a Sikh.
Instead, God is the author & lover of all humanity, regardless of religion, belief, race, age, gender, sexual or gender orientation, marriage status, ethnicity, abilities or disabilities.

We have today activated our Severe Weather Emergency Protocol. Under SWEP, we react to reports of a rough sleeper by offering the individual support in the form of accommodation, if they want it, such as bed and breakfast or temporary housing. More info: bit.ly/3nGC5V1

What do you think @realaled ?!
Thank you Anna and James, stay safe and keep up the excellent artwork!
How cute is this!! Anna, 6, and her brother James, 4, had a family viewing of @BBCSoP on Sunday and have now made a Thank You message for the crew! Thank you Songs of Praise for visiting Strawberry Field (before lockdown) to discover more about our mission. #SongsOfPraise

In 2019, following Jesus must include standing in solidarity with our neighbours around the world who are on the front line of the #ClimateEmergency. We must continue to speak out and act.

St Paul asks us to pray "for all in authority" (1 Tim 2:2). We must learn to do this, even for politicians with whom we disagree. Christians must pray for all people in government, that they may work for the common good. #SantaMarta

Young boy on the tube looking at the tube map and asking his mum about the wheelchair user symbols. She’s been explaining they are the step free stations. He spent a minute or so looking at it and then said but what if you want to go to all the other places without the symbol?
