Fab run this morning listening to James Finley explaining T S Eliot's Four Quartets. The facts that I don't understand much of it and that I need someone to help me make any sense of it don't bother me now. I'm just grateful. It's beautiful and speak
We are just back from Christmas in Sussex. Lots of great times there; everyone loves a Christingle and a Playmobil treasure hunt to find their stockings, fab simple illustration in a Christmas day sermon that I am still musing on (we can't climb up t
So much richness in just yesterday. I had a lot of fun decorating the pulpit which has no anchor points. And the foliage and flowers I'd collected from verges over the last few days were all used up in a way I could never have imagined. A great oppor
I've been doing some quiet days recently and it's been tricky to know how to plan when people are busy so can't commit at this time of year. But every time God has brought people who needed me to hold time and space for them. And I am reminded of my
Some early photos from our advent calendar that we are doing here in Church Stretton. Do follow along on @strettonparish2 if you want to see how this unfolds. The team has been superb and a real joy to be part of and it's been a great chance to mee

I'm really pleased with my floral art that I made this week. I used the somewhat decaying berries and leaves left over from the party. I like this recycling concept.
Great weekend celebrating my sister's family 120th birthdays. We spent Saturday decorating the hall where their wedding reception had been 13 (?, I should know this) years earlier. Didn't pick up my phone all day (which says to me that I was happy).
Photos from a great day out on Friday exploring the @barberinstitute. I've never been to an exhibition with smells before. Great to spot this Alan Younger glass in a beautiful church in Enville that I've been meaning to stop at for a while. Fab lunch
Quick trip to Sussex to talk about Harry Clarke's amazing windows at @ashdownparkhotel. Lovely bunch of people (including @labyrinthstainedglass ) who were really interested in my tale. His glass is exquisite and I'm especially fond of this central s
