The response to this film across all platforms has been amazing and just so touching. And the viewing figures are mad. Thanks everyone ❤️
With a historically nomadic culture, it could be assumed that tangible remains of Romani Gypsies are hard to spot. @johnhenry185 reflects on whether Romani Gypsy history has been forgotten or overlooked. Watch the full film on our blog ➡️ bit.ly/RomaniHeritage #WeAreHistoric

Saying farewell to a great man, as well as a deeply pastoral, visionary and prophetic bishop. The C of E is poorer without his ministry.

Today is Holocaust Memorial Day. A day which we remember Roma and Sinti victims, and all the people murdered by the Nazi regime. (1/3)

Cora & I pensively contemplating the next @churchofengland @synod. Then the lovely Father @joaufer came along & saved us from our inner turmoil. Prebendaries are just perfect ♥️ Then we went for a drink with the just a lovely Frs @RevShemil & @RevdRay Fabulous to catch up with Shemil. Ray I had only known online until today & was a complete delight to meet in the flesh.

Powerful words from @BishopSarah in her closing speech this afternoon at the end of the #Synod #LLF debate I think it was the most memorable and moving speech I have heard from a bishop in years. I remain grateful to her for all that she has done in leading us through the last few years, at much personal cost to herself.
