Whether you are able or not to vote, I would appreciate it if you would pray for all of the candidates who have put so much effort and commitment into standing to serve in this way. And pray for all the people in the background who are working on running the process.

I am standing for reelection to General Synod in @leeds.anglican.org. I’ve shared some information about myself on my website along with my election address. I would love it if you are clergy in the diocese and able to give me a high placed vote. www.robbsutherland.com/blog/general...

I recommended other vocational reading. But this is the most important of my recommendations.

Me yelling “pick a direction!” at a squirrel in the road is probably exactly how God feels watching me make a decision.

Other important paperwork I have filled in this week is the adoption paperwork for these three. Come the weekend, chaos will ensue.

My paperwork for reelection to #GeneralSynod is in and verified. If you are clergy in the Diocese of Leeds I would be eternally grateful if you were able to give me your first choice vote.

One of the things we have finished this week is a new Rock Mass setting for the Eucharist. We’re looking forward to playing it with @metanoiauk.bsky.social next week at rehearsal.

Gite life is going well. Today we finished off three of the songs we’ve been working on. We have also arranged two acoustic versions of rock songs to add to @robbandruth.bsky.social setlist. I need to get us more acoustic gigs for 2027.

#MorningPrayer Lord Jesus, turn our hearts away from using the power we have at our disposal to serve only an agenda of selfishness and ego; give us instead hearts that beat with your love, and seek the wellbeing of neighbours near and far. May we live lives that show your grace.

I can do this. It’s just out of my comfort zone pointing to the awesome people around me. I also have a bunch of people around me trying to make me accept a compliment.

I am writing my paperwork for reelection to #GeneralSynod. It plays into all of my greatest weaknesses: Talking about myself. Highlighting what part I have played in good things that have happened.

Went to Plopsaland. Ride to Happiness is one of the most butt clenching rides I have ever been on. I think it’s the first spinning car coaster I’ve been on with such high intensity loops.

Giggling at the idea that we sit around on the Liturgical Commission descending into factions and calling each other “woke”.

To clarify, the festival of creation in Christ isn’t an environmental thing. It’s about remembering that we are God’s creatures. That the creator of atoms and black holes who is both outside and inside the universe and time itself decided to spend time with you talking about how you experience that.

“that composition sounds to me as though it is the outcome of an argument between those who wanted something that directly spoke to the climate crisis and those who didn’t want to sound too woke.” 👆 Literally didn’t happen. When we meet we’re nowhere near that animated.

Four hours ago I read a post where someone said they have “jewel citizenship”. I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep tonight for thinking about this.
