It was great to be in Rotherham yesterday seeing the amazing renewal that is taking place at Rotherham Minster through a social supermarket and a revival of choral music.

Remembering all those who have died at work or as a result of their work. Made all the more poignant this year with the news that over 100 health & care workers have died as a result of contracting Covid-19. There's a minutes silence at 11.00 #WorkersMemorialDay

The flooding in Rotherham has given a rare opportunity to see the medieval Bridge Chapel in water : as it would have been when built and for hundreds years before the new bridge was built. Luckily the chapel hasn’t flooded, yet. #Rotherham

Trump could shoot someone on 5th Avenue or pay hush money to a porn star or call entire countries sh*tholes ... and some "evangelical" leaders would still support him. One has to ask: "Are you a disciple of Jesus or a disciple of Trump?"
