How very sad to see a Wren Church - the burial place of Dick Whittington - being flogged off by the Diocese. Doubly sad that I cannot remember any discussion in the Deanery about whether other churches in the City might want to take it on. m.search-prop.com/st-michael-pat…

@FlyingAngelNews @safety4sea Very well deserved 🙌 Congratulations

🏆 We're proud to announce our Secretary General, The Revd. Canon Andrew Wright has received the 2024 Crew Welfare Leadership award from @safety4sea ! His 12-year tenure at the Mission has transformed seafarer support globally. Congratulations, Andrew! 👏 bit.ly/3L2dMPu

@mercoglianos @MenchOsint We are in touch with the families of the crew also. It's a very sad situation for the crew and one not of their making. Just innocent Seafarers going about their business...

@MenchOsint I have a feeling the crew being held hostage since November is not as happy about the fireworks. They would much rather not be prisoners of the #Houthis..

While the Israeli linked ships aren't allowed to cross the Red Sea, the Yemenis are having parties on the one they captured.

Happy’Day of Seafarers’

Giving thanks for the safety of the Crew and thanks to the Military for saving those who were in distress. "O hear us when we cry to Thee For those in Peril on the sea"

More attacks on merchant shipping and to innocent Seafarers! Also not forgetting the innocent Seafarers still being held against their will on board the Galaxy Leader. #seafarersarekeyworkers
