Here’s a video of a conversation I had with one of the members of St Mary’s last Sunday. Andy Winter was chatting to me about the way treatment and perception of HIV has changed over the years.

The above picture seems to be the one that shows the essence of the Animal Blessing service that we had over the weekend. Someone suggested that it showed Opal and myself planning world domination. However, it is simply me offering pastoral care to one who normally engages with St Mary’s online. There are lots more…
