A few people online are blogging and tweeting today about what it’s like to be a woman pastor in the UK today as it’s the 25th anniversary of when women were first ordained in the Church of England. So Tuesdays for me are usually pretty quiet, as I keep them clear to catch up on […]

So it’s been a crazy few days, we’ve been busy at home and at work. I’m particularly proud as I’ve just built a flat-pack desk and it’s clear except for my laptop! It’s probably the last time it will be like that! It’s been something I’ve felt really torn about. I’m a trainee priest/pastor and […]

The last time I spent more than £100 on an outfit for a big church ceremony was in 2007 when I was preparing for my wedding […]

Even if I can’t spot him in the crowd, and my friends don’t even know he exists, I know he’s got his binoculars fixed on me. Even though others can’t hear the music I’m still dancing.

Soul Food Recipe: Do something positive: I’ve recently joined a slimming club and have been doing ok, it’s helping me feel in control of things again. Some weeks I can’t stay to the class, but other weeks I make time. It’s led to me making time for my own needs in other ways, like […]
