I am humbled to learn that the Bishop of Sheffield intends to make me a Canon of the Cathedral on Sunday 9th November at 4pm. The Te Deum window of the chapel of the Holy Spirit in the cathedral is a memorial to Fr George Campbell Ommanney, my most revered predecessor.

@stmichaelsc1 Unfortunately not: we are now on the way again, past Devin along the Danube to Vienna.

Yesterday #EasternExpedition we visited Devin Castle in a suburb of Bratislava at the confluence of the Danube & the Mora. Here in the 860s a church was built by Ratislav of Great Moravia which quite probably Ss Cyril & Methodius used as the HQ of their mission to the Slavs.

@ArchdeaconLuke Good old C and M. They were opposed by the beastly Franks, who didn't like their Slav ways, but luckily they had found the relics of St Clement on an earlier trip to Crimea and gave them to the Pope. He was so pleased he blessed their Slavonic liturgy! Will you go to Velehrad?

Cyril & Methodius developed Church Slavonic & the Gagolithic script from which modern Cyrillic derives. Their mission brought Christianity to the Slavs & the influence of both Constantinople and Rome. Amazing to think this was their church.

Narva was destroyed in WWII & only fragments of a baroque town to rival Tallinn survive. Here are “Life & Death” from a clock & “Adam” holding the apple with a bite out of it & demonstrating still sporting his prelapsarian hairdo & whiskers. #EasternExpedition

O God, faithful rewarder of souls, grant that your departed servant Pope Francis whom you made successor of Peter and shepherd of your Church, may happily enjoy for ever in your presence in heaven the mysteries of your grace and compassion, which he faithfully ministered on earth

Very happy to welcome @BishopSouthwark to St Michael's last night to meet aspiring ordinands and enjoy each other's company. Prayers for @SouthwarkCofE & for @bishopoffulham as Christmas draws near.

Fr Tim Pike @stmichaelsc1 has a great gift in starting with the relational and moving on to the vocational encouraging a dispersed group of young people to consider their call. In recent years I have greatly valued the opportunity to meet in Advent, pray and reflect together
