I took part in the Worcestershire Historic Churches Cycle Ride. Photos are here. What struck me was how some churches make a real effort to welcome visitors, even if they can't staff it. Others seemed to treat visitors as potential criminals!
I'm the Agricultural & Rural Chaplain for the diocese of Worcester, and this blog is a little about the work that I do. I am essentially a "free range vicar" who ranges over Worcestershire & Dudley, tying to help churches understand what is going on in agricultural & rural life and working with agricultural & rural organisations (folk like the National Farmers Union, Country Land and Business Association...) so they know the church is involved and interested in rural life .
I "roost" in the Martley area and if I'm not ranging elsewhere then I'm available to the local churches.
I hope this blog will help folk to be in touch with what I'm doing. I'm open to suggestions.

Looks like my former parish gave you a good welcome!
