Congratulations to Edoardo Fanfani, long time member of All Saints', who has been recommended by the Bishops' Advisory Panel to begin his theological training this Autumn. He will begin his training at Westcott House in Cambridge this September.
Very pleased to find the three Oratorios on the Caelian Hill open when we drove past this morning. Grabbed the chance to pay my respects to Saints Gregory and his mother Sylvia.
Maybe not for all my followers. But this is why I love Test cricket. Particularly as they are now having tea!
Is there a better sport than Test Cricket? Individual heroics, intense drama, ebb & flow. All down to the final session on day 5 for the 3rd Test in a row. And @bbctms is the best companion of all. Great insights, absence of bias, just enough humour. Age shall not wither….
Delighted to be in the crowd for Pope Leo’s Angelus in Castel Gandolfo. And even more so that the rain held off!
Visiting catacombs is one of the best things you can do in the summer heat. Today, I visited a lessor know one - San Pancrazio. Which includes the original tomb of 'Pope Felix II'.

One clear advantages of modern technology is that I don’t have to be in London for every meeting. Today @Lord_Collins is launching a strategy for Freedom of Religion or Belief. With @FCDO_FoRB_Envoy. And I am sitting in 🇻🇦. Cc @FCDOHumanRights I look forward to working on this!
Something you don’t see every day: a Catholic Mass being celebrated in Canterbury Cathedral—once the very heart of the English Reformation—led for the first time by the Pope’s ambassador to the UK, in honour of the martyred St Thomas Becket.
