Early morning walks at Mirfield

Prayers for Rev John Keeley who will be licensed later as Priest in Charge at Holy Trinity North Ormesby @dioceseofyork.bsky.social

To live Christ’s story is to be honest about where we have fallen short – in loving God, and in loving our neighbours. Ash Wednesday gives us space to do just that.

As we enter Lent, we are invited to begin again and be ready to live Christ’s story in our daily lives.

Explore @4 this evening we will be exploring Lent. What it is and why these weeks before Easter are important in the church year

It seems somewhat sad that in 2026 working class people are still needing to speak out to be supported in vocations. God who calls and knows everyone by name cares about us all equally and so our call should be recognised equally.

More working-class role-models needed in Church of England leadership, Synod is told National strategy agreed to allow working-class leaders to thrive without having to first ‘leave behind who they are’

Nobody should have to leave behind who they truly are to serve the #ChurchofEngland, the General #Synod heard during a debate on encouraging more working-class vocations to ministry

An amazing school! I went during my time with Middlesbrough Foodbank for a harvest assembly. A safe and special place

How often is it on? Would love to pop along one time

Praying for Revd John and all in North Ormesby

Thank you. I met Faye yesterday from your church. Lovely lady

Have the joy of preaching at St Hildas and St Cuthbert's Kirkleatham this morning. Do not worry. Are you not of more value than they are? The God who created the heavens and the earth cares deeply for you.
Pray for both congregations that they will hear from God today

First monthly prayer walk of the year this evening. We all paused at the racecourse as we admired the moon. Each month we walk a section of the parish. Praying and giving thanks. Tonight as we prayed we also have thanks for creation

Really excited to celebrate and hear about the different ways in which people serve the church.

Had a really good night at St Paul's church Stockton. Lots of laughter and also learnt a bit more about the Bible. James Cary is a great comedian and writer

A real joy to be at Sam's licensing this evening. Sam's a great person for his family and the church. He'll be great at St Martin's. Prayers for him and his family

Home after a weekend residential at Mirfield. It's it's been one of the best weekends I've had there. Lots of good discussions. We had some taize worship and we sung the Peruvian Gloria. Some good teaching on Blended spirituality. Lots to ponder about but yeah a great weekend

Essays for the term complete. Lots of lessons learnt for next term. Now to put my laptop away and enjoy some time off before the new term begins. Looking forward to going down south to see some family. (few football matches as well) but the important part is seeing family

An incredibly blessed first Christmas on placement at Kirkleatham Parish. From 9 lessons and carols to a quiet Christmas to crib service and midnight mass. The team of people at Kirkleatham are a joy to be with and I look forward to seeing what 2026 brings at Kirkleatham Parish

Almighty God, purify our hearts and minds, that when your Son Jesus Christ comes again as judge and saviour we may be ready to receive him, who is our Lord and our God. Amen.

Never thought I'd use the phrase "it goes in one ear and out the other" when preaching... Until today. When Jesus says let anyone with ears listen... Well we can listen but let's not let it go in one ear and out the other. It got a chuckle in church so they were definitely listening 👂

A really encouraging afternoon. Makes me feel united with others on the journey. Great to hear wisdom from the Archbishop and also time in our Archdeaconry groups.
