Such a joy to commission a new Urdu, Hindi, Punjabi and English speaking congregation at St Barnabas Middlesbrough @dioceseofyork.bsky.social today. A wonderful occasion, God at work and taste of heaven.
Alleluia! God at work...
The good people at The Teesside Charity have selected 20 finalists for their 2026 Gold Giveaway. They're all wonderful charities worthy of support. There is one though, Big Kids, that I have got to know very well and especially commend to your voting: www.teessidecharity.org.uk/golden-givea...
This #VolunteersWeek, we’re celebrating the Foundation Governors and MAT Trustees/Directors who give their time, skills, and commitment to support our church schools.
Fascinating conversation between John Lennox and Steven Bartlett - well worth a watch / listen:

One of my favourite nights of the year as those being ordained or training for ordination in Cleveland archdeaconry come round for dinner round the firepit as we discuss the ordinal together. Such precious time, such beautiful callings, gives such hope in what God will do in the years to come.
Won’t deny there's been the odd tear (to put it mildly) in our household over this too (not just our daughter!). Hard to understand the logic in setting a paper so distinct from any previous one. Good to hear Ofqual are on the case and reassuring from Edexcel on moving grade boundaries.
If you are interested in God's calling to be intercultural churches which better reflect the fullness of God's Kingdom and call, then this is well worth a read.....
