Hey 👋, I've had quite a few new people drop by as of late. So, if we have not met yet, I'm Rev'd Matt, a deacon and priest in @thechurchofengland. I mostly offer a place to pray and random thoughts on Jesus, books, & Doctor Who. Be blessed and know you are loved by Jesus ❤️
Today marks exactly 100 years since the first broadcast of Choral Evensong. Listen again to today's live broadcast from Westminster Abbey. If you've had a busy day, find some peace in the simple majesty of music and liturgy declaring that God loves you! https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m003215k

It's been a full and fun week in ministry as the summer season comes to an end. The last summer wedding is in the books, a fab baptism, community café, and a precious gift of a new bracelet from one of my little nieghbours. #blessed #ministry

Time to take my own advice and take a sabbath break ⏸️ So I'll be off socials for the month of August, if you wonder why I'm a little quieter with the lack of selfies 📸 See you on the other side! Remember that Jesus ❤️ YOU (yep, that includes you!)

Today, the Church remembers St Alban, Britain’s first martyr. Showing radical love by sheltering a fleeing priest and facing execution in his place. His Jesus-like selfless courage inspires us today to live boldly, stand for justice, & love others self-sacrificially. #Saint
