The month of January is called after Janus, the two-faced god who looks towards the future and the past at the same time.

And here he is, looking out from the medieval roodscreen at St Anno's, Llananno, Powys #FriendsofFriendlessChurches

People think my love of visiting #churches is about faith. But that’s too narrow. This is from

'What will survive of us is love' - An Arundel Tomb, by Philip Larkin

Spindly script on the altar table at St Mary's, Kenderchurch in Herefordshire. Much of the timberwork has been turned to dust by woodworm, but LOVE survived. #FriendsofFriendlessChurches

I went to a lovely carol service in St. Philip's church, Caerdeon. It was full of people and it was great to hear it full of song.

Thank you to @friendlesschurches.bsky.social who keep St. Philip's.

A trip out to St. Mark's in Brithdir, wonderfully looked after by @friendlesschurches.bsky.social

Visiting the lovely carved creatures of the pews, I spotted a heart in the leaded window above the choir balcony.
