Inspired by the Twurch of England post and stream by the Church Mouse, find below a sortable list of Bishops and Clergy of the Church of England who tweet. The table calls a live value from the Twitter site to show a completely up-to-date position of which Twurch of England members are the most followed.

If you’re not in this list, or you can think of other interesting Twitter information we could add, comment below.

    I’m guessing you either came home on the train, or didn’t have much mail on your return from the Leaders conference?

    Any more than 12 followers is too many…..

    Great list and blog Peter.

    I’m CofE but on secondment to New Zealand:

    Also worth adding:

    Thanks!

    CofE on long-term secondment to Australia and then who knows?

    • http://www.peter-ould.net Peter Ould

      I believe you were ordained in Sydney. Not sure that counts…

      :-)

      • http://davidould.net David Ould

        yeah, I’d like to meet the first bishop who tries to pull that one…

        • http://www.peter-ould.net Peter Ould

          Seriously though, you can’t be on secondment from the CofE if you weren’t ordained in the CofE.

          • http://davidould.net David Ould

            what, you don’t become proper CofE until you’re ordained?!

            • http://www.peter-ould.net Peter Ould

              You don’t become clergy in the Church of England until you’re ordained in the Church of England or come over here.

  • http://frpeter.blogspot.com Peter Weatherby

    Great site – great page – great idea.
    I am a Catholic priest in Stoke-on-Trent and so far as we can find out one of only three Catholic clergy who are currently tweeting in the UK.
    On the numbers as they currently stand it would seem that I would take second place on your league table … not that I am bragging of course!
    God bless all you in all your work.

    Hi Peter

    Seems to have slipped off the list – probably my own fault for changing my user name. ‘pgw71′ became ‘paulwalker71′ (ostensibly to match my Facebook and other social media user profiles)

    Think I probably should be well up in the clergy list with my 340-ish followers :)

    Blessings

      Fixed!

    Hi, I can't see my husband on that list. He is @RevJohnBridge on Twitter. :-)

    • http://www.peter-ould.net Peter Ould

      This list is about two years out of date. He's certainly on the list now!

  • http://Frpeter.blogspot.com Peter Weatherby

    Where is the latest list then? … With numbers?

      Click on the "Twurch of England" menu item at the top of the page and you'll see the latest incarnation.

Two Final Things

Aber mit der Heimat
geht man immer herum,
durch die Welt,
dort und dort
Peter Handke

No one could describe
the Word of the Father;
but when He took flesh from you, O Theotokos,
He consented to be described, and restored the fallen image to its former beauty.
We confess and proclaim our salvation in word and image.
