A rectangular graphic with a blue rectangle on the right with a textured background. White writing reads: “The Governing Body is the supreme legislature of the Church in Wales, effectively the Parliament of the Church in Wales. It meets twice a year to receive reports and make decisions on matters brought before it, usually relating to doctrine and governance. It is comprised of 144 members - the 7 bishops, 51 clerical representatives, and 86 non-clerical (lay) representatives. Y Corff Llywodraethol yw deddfwrfa oruchaf yr Eglwys yng Nghymru, Senedd yr Eglwys yng Nghymru i bob pwrpas. Mae'n cyfarfod ddwywaith y flwyddyn i dderbyn adroddiadau a gwneud penderfyniadau ar faterion a ddygir ger ei fron, fel arfer yn ymwneud ag athrawiaeth a llywodraethu. Mae yn gynwysedig o 143 o aelodau - 7 o esgobion, 51 o gynnrychiolwyr clerigol, ac 86 o gynnrychiolwyr (lleyg) nad ydynt yn glerigol.” Next to the blue rectangle is the other half of a picture taken at a Governing Body meeting, depicting people with their hands raised with coloured bits of paper in, voting.

St John's offers its condolences to the family and friends of Sir Billy Boston. He was a proud Welshman. We are sad that skin colour and race can still limit opportunities and we resolve to continue to oppose discrimination. Rest in Peace Sir Billy, son of Cardiff 🙏 www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-...

Well done Church in Wales. There is rarely a kind or positive word said about trans people at the moment. The dignity of trans people is not in opposition to women's rights. St John's affirms its commitment to trans and to non-trans people. Explicitly, trans and cis people are welcome at St John's

Christians try to say Morning and Evening prayer each day. These ancient and beautiful services (or Offices as they are more properly called) allow us to begin and end our day with God. They remind us of timeless truths and anchor us. Sometimes they are so prescient. Here's this morning's psalm!
