Well it was fun to watch the Red Sox make a huge run this summer but I think it’s time to say goodbye for the season.

Recent confirmation and reception service with the Bishop. Such a joy! ⚓️

I threw my Jackie Robinson jersey over my clericals this evening to begin an adult formation series using John Sexton’s Baseball as a Road to God as our text. I had the most faithful group of baseball diehards and we had a great time talking about baseball and faith and sacred time and space. ⚓️

Seems like a good night to sit on my porch with some Wendell Berry poetry.

Saturday is my only morning this week where I don’t have to get out of bed early but Liverpool is on now here so awake I am anyway.

Joe Pritchett @jepritch.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

A pipe, a pint, the Book of Common Prayer, and some poetry was the perfect way to wind down on my porch tonight after boys went to bed. ⚓️

I’m just going to say it, I really miss the World Cup.

Please keep me in your prayers. I’ll be leaving tomorrow to serve as the Anglican chaplain/priest-in-residence in Santiago de Compostela, Spain at Casa Anglicana and the church, San Fiz. I’ll be there serving through the rest of July. ⚓️

I was in tears at the end of the match. It was special.

Still thinking about that Cape Verde/Argentina match. Wow.

I don’t know what I’m going to do with myself after the World Cup ends.

I think the Mexico kit is my favorite of the World Cup.

I got to celebrate the eucharist today at the end of my pilgrimage in Santiago. What an absolute joy and privilege it was. I was joined by Fr. Daniel Moore, the current Anglican chaplain in Santiago. The Rt. Rev. Carlos López-Lozano, the Bishop for the Spanish Episcopal Church, also paid a visit. ⚓️

Joe Pritchett @jepritch.bsky.social · 24/05/2026

After walking 16 miles today, I sat with my feet in the river along with people from all over the world. It was pure joy. We spoke different languages, but we were having a shared experience in that cold water and understood one another. Not a bad way to spend Pentecost. ⚓️

Joe Pritchett @jepritch.bsky.social · 23/05/2026

While walking on the Camino I heard someone mentioning “the rector” and I immediately knew they were Episcopalian. It turns out they are walking with a group from their church and we had a great conversation. ⚓️

Joe Pritchett @jepritch.bsky.social · 11/05/2026

Please keep my students and I in your prayers. I’m back in Spain to take another cohort on the Camino and we begin walking on Wednesday. ⚓️

Prayer is always appropriate and we should be in prayer daily. With that being said, today feels like a particularly important day to be in prayer, given the statements made by the President of the United States. ⚓

It was a joy to take part in my first Easter Vigil as a priest tonight. ⚓️

Our youth group had a look in at the church last night and they assisted with sitting and praying at the Altar of Repose. We ended the time together praying the Stations of the Cross with them. Meaningful and sacred time (And I definitely need a nap before this evening). ⚓️

Joe Pritchett @jepritch.bsky.social · 03/04/2026

Praying for an hour at the Altar of Repose with the Blessed Sacrament is always one of my highlights of Holy Week. It is always so sacred and God feels so close. ⚓️

Wishing you all a blessed Opening Day of baseball!

Can I just say that I'm so glad baseball is back.

I'm not sure what I was expecting, but I found the installation of the new Archbishop of Canterbury to be incredibly moving. ⚓

Sarah Mullally was installed on Wednesday as the Archbishop of Canterbury, the most senior cleric in the Church of England and spiritual leader of the Anglican Communion, which includes some 85 million Anglicans around the world. She is the first woman to hold the title. nyti.ms/47nyAg8

As a pilgrimage nerd, I'm very excited about Archbishop Mullally's pilgrimage to Canterbury. I'm hoping it will continue to serve as a vehicle to promote pilgrimage in the UK and in other places as well. ⚓

Ya'll realize that we will have meaningful baseball games back in EARLY MARCH. This is less than a month from today - the World Baseball Classic will start. This will surely be a boost to my mental health.

I’m so grateful to be a priest in Christ’s Church. I also share this while grieving the loss of another life at the hands of state-sponsored violence. Let us all have the strength to stand against this evil in word and prayer and deed. ⚓️

When my youngest child is looking forward to something and wants to know how far away it is, the easiest way for him to grasp it is for me to tell him how many "sleeps" away it is. Turns out this works for me too. I'm four sleeps away from being ordained a priest. ⚓
