RIP Jo Cox, MP for Batley and Spen, tragically killed yesterday in a vicious act of violence. St. Thomas Church, Batley is one of my beloved CMS Link Churches, full of great people, the salt of the earth. When I last visited Batley in April 2015 it was in the midst of the election campaign in which Jo Cox won the seat for Batley and Spen. Praying for her family, friends, and the whole community of Batley at this sad time.
This is my blog post from that visit to St. Thomas Church, originally posted on April 13, 2015….

Thank you for re- posting Catherine; the events have touched many people; there was a vigil here in Durham on Friday evening outside the Cathedral, and I think there have been similar gatherings around the country.
