Let all preachers remember this morning the Duke of Edinburgh’s wise words concerning his famous dislike of sermons that go on too long: “The mind cannot absorb what the backside cannot endure!”

I ask for your prayers today as I am collated and inducted at 7.00 pm as vicar of All Saints’, Margaret Street. May God bless this wonderful parish and give me the grace I need to undertake this task worthily and fruitfully. The service will be live-streamed.

A privilege to spend the afternoon as part of the chaplaincy team to those queueing to pay their respects to the Queen. So many touching conversations shared with people who feel we all owe the Queen so much. So much love and respect and affection tinged by quiet sadness.

I couldn’t agree more. Could we stop using the world “medieval” in relation to Afghanistan to mean backward, cruel and unenlightened. The medieval period produced some of mankind’s greatest artistic triumphs and foremost intellectual achievements.
News outlets: can you please stop using ‘medieval’ as derogatory term?

What a moving and touching tribute from the Prince of Wales.
"My dear papa was a very special person who, I think above all else, would have been amazed by the reaction."
Prince Charles says the Royal family are "deeply grateful" for the "touching things that have been said" following the Duke of Edinburgh's death.

Isn’t it fascinating that when this illegal rave was set up in a broken into medieval Essex church last night they instinctually put the music equipment where the high altar should be in the sanctuary. Not even stoned illegal ravers seem to want nave altars in the round anymore.

Today’s feast of St Thomas a Becket is a good opportunity to remind ourselves that the crucifix over the high altar at St Benet’s, Kentish Town, is in fact an old prop from the film “Becket” starring Richard Burton and Peter O’Toole.
