Last week, this blog turned 7 years old! Things have changed a huge amount since I was a curate and freshly minted deacon setting up this website, and writing my first post, called New home, new blog!

Over that time I’ve written about ministry and becoming a priest and a vicar. A few years in, I came up with the Weekly Check-in to talk about the day to day, or, week to week, life as a minister in the CofE. I’ve talked about various adventures, festivals, trips and holidays. I’ve shared about family, life as a Mum and the juggle that is vicaring and parenting. There have been prayer blogs, sermon blogs and blogs about completely random things as well.

And over the time, somehow, I’ve collected more than 200 followers and the blog has been viewed over 59,000 times, which is so much more than I ever anticipated or imagined!

So I just wanted to say thank you. If you read frequently or if you drop in and out, thank you.

I don’t share many of my blogs to Facebook or Instagram, so if you want to sign up to read more often, you can do so via the ‘follow’ and ‘subscribe’ buttons below.

Thank you all for your wonderful support, I am very grateful.
