Replying to @BishopSouthwark
@BishopSouthwark's visit to our church at Pentecost has made the @ChurchTimes! It certainly takes some fine technique to score such an emphatic penalty while in cassock and cincture, but a dodgy keeper always helps 😉 @benvonbergclark – at Camberwell, London

It was a joy to be with you! Especially good to be upstaged by the donkey and I really liked it that he drew the line at going into church. I think he’d seen the grass across the road! Onwards to Holy Week. ‘Were you there when they crucified my Lord?’@SouthwarkCofE

No one could be more grateful than me for Alison’s support and assistance not least in managing my diary - and much more besides - for over 4 years and I wish her a long and blessed retirement

It was deeply moving to meet with Ukrainian refugees in Bucharest 🇷🇴yesterday. Hugely impressed by @UNHCRRomania offering help with housing, clothing, education and counselling. I pray for all those enduring the trauma of fleeing their homes – and all those who support them.
