Ghana's proposed anti- LGBT legislation is unacceptable and must be resisted. It would promote fear and intolerance, putting the freedom of so many people under threat. We are all love equally by God. My prayers are with the LGBT community in Ghana at this time.

The Terminally Ill Adults Bill risks reshaping our country’s values - signalling that some lives aren’t worth living.
Life has intrinsic value, and even in dying, life has meaning.
Instead of supporting this Bill, we should back fully funded palliative and social care that supports people to live with dignity to the end.

It was a pleasure to spend time talking with Lois and Lila, St Paul’s first girl choristers in 900 years, before they officially join the Choir at today’s Evensong.

Her Majesty the Queen’s words about her husband Prince Philip over 20 years ago remain as true today: we owe him a debt greater than he would ever claim, or we shall ever know. My prayers are with The Queen and the Royal Family. I pray that they may know God’s comfort and peace
It is with deep sorrow that Her Majesty The Queen has announced the death of her beloved husband, His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh.
His Royal Highness passed away peacefully this morning at Windsor Castle.

Edith Cavell’s deep Christian faith and understanding of God’s love motivated her vocation as a nurse. She aspired to demonstrate genuine love for all. Her life shines like a star, guiding all of us to live by a kindness that is unafraid - a greater kindness. A kindness that reaches over national or ideological boundaries to leave no one behind.

My prayers are with all those affected by the devastating attack on a synagogue in Manchester today – especially on this holy day of Yom Kippur. Today and every day, we stand side-by-side with the Jewish community against all forms of antisemitism. An attack on a place of worship is an attack on all people of faith, and the bonds that bind us together. Hatred cannot be allowed to extinguish the light of compassion, and no act of terror can silence the call to peace. Our shared humanity is greater than any force that seeks to tear it apart.
