Great that watching this counts towards my AGRA Genealogy CPD - it's pure fun! Brilliant tuition and case studies from Ann Ann Ballard as always. Sign up for the next series and you'll realise why your Thursday evenings were always slightly lacking...

Join St Michael's community beginning Holy Week this Palm Sunday with our traditional singing of the Passion and share other extraordinary services leading up to Easter. We're delighted to welcome Bishop Jackie Jackie Searle acting Bishop of Exeter and the Rev Dr Sue Astbury

Wonderful Palm Sunday service StMichaelsExeter many coming from near and far to sing (the youngest just 4) serve and fill the pews (youngest: Ruskin the Spaniel pup 5 mo.) We welcomed Bishop @jackieserle09 and felt heartened by the spring sunshine streaming through the West Doors.

Save the historic Exeter Church: St Michael’s Mount Dinham chng.it/QZpGTd52 via Change.org UK

Lucy Browne Genealogy Change.org UK historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-li… Turn a Grade I listed church into flats? Has Historic England made a representation on that?

Do consider signing the petition to save this architecturally important and much loved church StMichaelsExeter

Cessation of regular services StMichaelsExeter amounts to closure; apparently this is imminent. Offering services at another church at midday on a Sunday with altered liturgy is hardly sensitive pastoral provision and does not address the building's future. chng.it/NgxXDQLdhS

Suggest that a working party now is a horse after several carts of resolutions passed, plans commissioned and displayed. Will wait with interest to see how many genuine friends of StMichaelsExeter will be invited to this particular party.

Applicants for the position of vicar advertised below might want to read the details of this petition carefully and sign it to help ensure there are actually still two churches and congregations by the time of their induction. change.org/p/save-the-his…

Here is another George (Georges actually) for St George's Day, wearing Father Richard's biretta on Easter Sunday at St Mary's Hay on Wye where they are very kind to dogs.

Sunday afternoon puzzle! 1851 occupation: anyone know what Samuel Moon's was? (line next to the bottom). He had had about three years in the Navy prior to this. Abbreviation of some sort but no idea what.

After Paul Carter Paul Carter's talk for AGRA Genealogy about Artificial Intelligence, I now understand what it is, its development, its use, and its use to me as a genealogist! I could have asked AI all this I suppose, but Paul is still way ahead. And so much friendlier.

An extraordinary 28,243 people signed this petition resulting in the real possibility of a FUTURE for this precious church and community. We CAN change things together! Come and join or visit and keep an eye out for great things happening StMichaelsExeter

Cameo role in this one ...

Family! A 96th birthday girl with her two daughters, two grand-daughters and her niece assembled in Devon from London, Brecon and Burnaby in Canada! #seizethemomentwhetheryourhairiscleanornot

Heritage Open Days this weekend in Exeter StMichaelsExeter! Something for everyone (sung mass, cream teas, parlour songs, architectural and organ tours, recitals, more sung masses, friendly chat, dogs welcome) Heritage Open Days The Church of England #localhistory

Looking forward to what promises to be a really interesting day! This map, which I shall use in my talk, shows 17th century Bow in Devon, and details what might be the manorial lands of Nymet Tracey. With lots of cosy little houses thrown in.
