@johndavis3.bsky.social Checking out a different space.

@RevDaniel He’s after the Spanish speaking voters with Guadalupe!

@simonsarmiento They also are in ‘impaired communion’ with a number of dioceses within the Anglican Church of Australia. The House of Bishops is not able to gather as a whole for Holy Communion. The C of E speaks of schism. The same agents have been at it for years in Australia. All about power.

@Liturgy It works for us in Australia though!

We ARE heading into Spring!

@AlboMP Is there conclusive evidence - for example post mortems - that might confirm the date and cause of death? Rafah has seen recent bombing and military action. Were these poor individuals murdered by Hamas? Or like so many Palestinians civilian casualties of this terrible war?

It is devastating to learn that six Israeli hostages have been killed by Hamas. Australians offer our deepest sympathies to their loved ones and all those who grieve their loss. Every innocent life matters.

@Praxeas I would prefer the self-descriptor ‘person of faith’. Does that work? Not a potential pejorative, not so broad.

You know that "spiritual but not religious" is exactly how capitalism needs this to play out, right?

This is the most eloquent argument against Christofascism (Christian nationalism) I've ever heard. This impressive young man's name is James Talarico and he represents the state of Texas. He is the future of the Democratic Party. #Christofascism #ChristianNationalism

@vanbadham Garage roller door controls?

@AustAnglican Not even the accession. Very droll.

Anyone else commemorating the Ascension of King Charles this week?

@_stuckings @AustAnglican Ah, but we incorporate it all. The whole magnificent and diverse tradition.

I am spending much of today listening to the music of J S Bach, and it is indeed refreshing. Excellent way to cleanse the mind. 🎶

@AustAnglican Has to be pre 1871.

Have you ever had the fun of working out the date of a Prayer Book, based on the various historical clues to be found in it? This example, one of my oldest, dates from Victorian times, but there’s something on the front page that helps narrow that down somewhat! Do you know what?

@AustAnglican And Wangaratta synod is on at this very weekend also. With the Metropolitan as guest preacher.

I’ve been hoping to resume tweeting Synod dates in 2023 (first year since 2019!) and was assuming Brisbane was first. But The Murray has snuck in early! Their Synod is today and tomorrow (2-3 June) at the Bridge Event Centre (Murray Bridge Racing Club)

@PeterWMurphy1 No. Because unlike Edward Charles has his own children. They take precedence over a brother. If he had abdicated, William would be next in line.

Edward abdicated to marry divorcee Wallis Simpson. And so his brother Albert, Duke of York, became King George VI. If Charles had renounced his claim on the throne to marry divorcee Camilla, would Prince Andrew, Duke of York, now be our king? 🤔 😏 #monarchy #RepublicNow

@lesstenny The hospital or even GP should be in a position to make a referral to whichever local body is responsible for sending out the ACAT assessors to the person’s home. It should be able to be expedited if the matter is urgent. But a referral is necessary. Good luck. Very complex .

How do you get an ACAT assessment? wife has been trying for ages for her mother, 4 times she left a message, No one bothers to call back.. It's getting urgent..Her mother has been in hospital twice recently, it's getting crazy anyone has any good advice.

@AustAnglican I like your ‘Anglican adjacent’. Quite broadly useful descriptor.

Some interesting Anglican-adjacent news

@auspoldaily Thanks for this Alex. Now following!

Let's debunk some recenf Lib staffer discourse. They're claiming there's no existential threat to the Libs based on- 1. those telling Libs to arrest the rightward drift are never voting for them anyway so their opinion is worthless 2. after the Kevin07 wipeout, Libs were... 1/11
