This morning’s little benefice eucharist: twenty-ish parishioners, one cathedral dean, one vicar, one small dog called Kai who joined in the hymns and went up to the communion rail for a blessing. Cracking sermon and There’s a Wideness in God’s mercy to my favourite tune. #RuralMinistry ✝️

I'm looking forward to telling some tales from my time as a rural vicar next week - I'm not the Vicar of Dibley but it sometimes feels like it!

Enjoyed the diversity of rural parish churches in @cofeworcester.bsky.social this morning. From the bizarre baroque splendour of Great Witley to the stark simplicity of Pensax, only accessible up a steep grassy path. Faithful people in both. #ruralministry

This weekend, churches across the diocese gathered for Rogationtide – a time to give thanks for farmers, livestock, crops, and the life of the land.
St Leonard’s, Farlington, enjoyed a joyful outdoor service, with sunshine, singing, and a moo-ving bovine chorus!

We are based in a 'remote rural area' in Southwest Scotland (the Machars of Galloway) and I'd be particularly interested in connecting with others involved in the whole process of 'doing church' in this kind of area. #ruralministry
