Inspiring launch of @JustinWelby’s book ‘The Power of Reconciliation’ at Lambeth Palace last night. Abp Justin said peace agreements don’t solve conflict but set framework for reconciliation. Saw signs of hope for diplomatic solution in Ukraine. My old and new jobs come together!

Great to hear @HfdCath_Choir again in their Advent Service at the Guards Chapel in London. The chapel was bombed during a service in 1944 - only the apse remained but a new chapel was built around it.
