Bloody brilliant news! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Welcome to Tuesday at #synod, where issues in human sexuality, from 1991, still held over the heads of ordinands, could, just could, become history! 🙏🏼

Not gonna lie, I've felt a bit flat this #synod, so haven't really tweeted much, or been overly social... But I am here!

There's something about this, where the CofE put seemingly capable, usually young, of a minority group, people on a pedestal, and unfortunately here, meant they were blinded to the truth. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A real pleasure to spend the last few days with Darius being ordained priest. A different calling, a different ministry but one none the less. @dioceseofyork.bsky.social

What Synod does to my heart rate.

This is fabulous, especially when you read it imagining the current holders of those posts.

I’m not usually in favour of AI, but is there any way it could be used to automate General Synod so humans aren’t subjected to the cruelty of having to take part?

I took this photo on Sunday night knowing a few days later I'd be craving her... I cannot wait to get home from synod tomorrow.

I think I've had enough of the 'hammer to crack a nut' analogy this synod.

Another great debate on hearing the voices of young adults. We need the age of General Synod to reduce, we need more younger and diverse voices, we need to encourage those we know.

I've reached the glazed over, knackered part of Synod.

A brilliant debate on working class ministry at #Synod this morning, a welcome break from some of the heavier debates.

The option to vote for model 4 now removed by an amendment, basically saying we'll go with 3 for now, and work towards 4. Disappointing, it feels like kicking it into the long grass, which we couldn't really afford to do. #synod

Disappointed in that vote on #synod. I voted for model 4 and I think Synod will come to regret instead endorsing model 3 (a lesser form of independent safeguarding) in the short term, even if they say they’ll aim for model 4 later.

The overwhelming voice of victims & survivors. The need for consistancy. It's a conscience vote for me today, however hard, expensive, time consuming and messy. #synod

Pack your #synod pass folks!

I've definitely asked this before, but any recommendations for a study series for an on the ball, inclusive teen church group?

The £12.99 home bargains tree hasn't let us down yet!

*SO* good! I just about managed to resist the urge to stand up and sing Defying Gravity at the top of my lungs in the cinema.

The pooch went for some laser treatment today to help an op wound heal. LOOK AT HER! 😍

This feels nice doesn't it? Sort of like meeting up with friends you haven't heard from in a while. Sort of like how it used to be!

Made the leap over from 'X'. Now to see if Twitter pals make it too!
