The week of celebration continues! My favorite son turns 8. Love you my son

15 years with @amylphilip ! Happy anniversary my love

Incredible welcome to New York from our friends at @churchofthecitynewyork 🤯🥲 Thank you @joshuajdunn @jordyshutt @corinnemorgan_ @emilylindquistmusic @jontyson

.nyc 05.01.25 Moved to New York City 📸 my new neighbor @paoloethugo

16.5 years ago, I moved from India to Brighton on a 1 year visa to intern at a church here. At the end of that year, I met Amy and never left (not illegally, I renewed visas and then became a British citizen) And now, with Amy and our three kids, it’s time for another big move! We’re moving to New York. Also, 🤯 Amy will continue working with @wearejoyn and I will be joining the staff at @churchofthecitynewyork Our journey to New York has been nothing short of a mighty miracle. There is absolutely nothing more exhilarating than following Jesus! If you’d like to hear the story (and hopefully be encouraged to seek God for crazy adventures!), drop me a message, and I’ll forward you a recording of what I shared with my church staff team I n Brighton. I’m grieving the friendships that will change here in the UK, in Brighton, at Emmanuel and Newday. There’s too many people to thank and honour and the thought of not being able to do life together is too hard to dwell on. But I am grateful that I’m leaving with joy and pain. Come visit us in New York! Lol I’ve become a UK US Indian

Yes Alanna, we came so close to moving there

Happy place

Hottest day of the year

Hello new decade! So up for my forties! Year 39 was full of incredible highs and crushing disappointments but through it all God was faithful and good and near. I am grateful. Shout out to the best @amylphilip for my birthday threads 😘 And, a massive thank you to @adamjenkins.design for this beautiful piece of art. I absolutely love it! I am the white tiger riding a jaguar ready to conquer Westeros (also, how epic was episode 4 of House of the Dragon?!)

14 years! God is good

Peak Brighton

Loam 👌🏽

My gorgeous Tali Beth is 10!

Psalm 25 Who is the man who fears the LORD? Him will he instruct in the way that he should choose. His soul shall abide in well-being, and his offspring shall inherit the land. The friendship of the LORD is for those who fear him, and he makes known to them his covenant.

12 years of Alanna! Love this girl LOADS!

Newday 2023 Creative Team, it was an honour

That final @newdayevent review video had me in tears in the Big Top. It’s incredible to watch as the people pictured and many more (photo to follow soon) took a concept to completion in just over 24 hours and DELIVERED!

Last day of primary school for the oldest v first day

I’ve been waiting all my life to post this photo 🎂

6 years of the great joy bringer!

13 years 😘

New couple pose

Spring is coming

December vs Jan

Take me back 😭

9 years of our gorgeous Tali Beth!

New album/merch alert

Absolutely loved leading this outstanding group of individuals affectionately known as the Newday Creative Team at @newdayevent 2022. We’re more than a team for a week, we’re a community of friends who love doing what we do together. See you at Newday 2023 if not before!

My intern Lucy Felli did this and it is one of the most beautiful things ever!

5 years of the Wolf! Happy birthday you beautiful boy

12 incredible years with @buttonandblue P.S. Our new favourite hangout Soho House is the same location as our old wedding reception venue!

Happy birthday babe 😘

Eth has hit three digit territory but the squad is keeping my spirits up

It was surreal driving past McDonalds, kfc, H&M in an air conditioned Mercedes along paths on which 1.2 million people walked their last steps

No words to describe this evil evil evil place

Brighton

Kid with sick bug

Everything is awesome (unless you support Manchester United)

Surrendered my Indian passport last week. Experienced the best and worst of Indian bureaucracy at the consular services centre. I was refused entry because I did not have a printout of the email confirmation of my appointment even though I could show them said email on my phone. Then, I was given an appointment for 12.30 but the officers were on their lunch break. Why not just give people appointments before or after said lunch break time?! Anyway, after waiting way longer than planned, I finally met with the officer who would check my form. Turns out I hd carelessly filled in incorrect information. On a government form. For a very important passport matter. But instead of outright rejecting my application, they accepted my apologies and my incorrectly filled form 😂

I love my son

Goodbye 31 Vine Street 😢

Authentic family photo. Happy new year 🧨

8 years of my gorgeous Tai Beth

And he’s off to school!

Gutted. ‘You come at the king, you best not miss’ is probably one of the most iconic lines by one of the most iconic characters from the most iconic show of our times. The death of the character and of the man has been equally shocking. Thank you for Omar Little, @bkbmg

My queen and my queen

4 years apart. Now I’m British.

Last day of being an Indian citizen. Feels very weird

1st day of nursery vs last day of nursery

My last birthday as an Indian citizen! Last night’s result hasn’t dampened my excitement about becoming British. I’m coming home. You’re welcome

Foggy Brighton

4 happy happy happy years of the wolf!

Last week for Amy’s birthday, we ate good food all day and it was the best day ever

11 years! Happy anniversary @buttonandblue 😘

🎉Happy birthday to my numero uno 🎂 I custom designed a pair of 97s for Amy with a nod to Button and Blue. Over the last 12 months, Amy’s focus has gone from being a knitwear designer to marketing and brand manager. The step up has been insane but she’s taken it in her stride. All the hard work and grit and hustle from running your own business is finally paying off way more than we imagined. ‘Faithful with the little, much will be given’ is a good principle to live by. So proud of you, love 😘

5 years ago today, we started The Square. 5 years later, we’re still great friends. Just about.

These two 😘

👌🏾

Mother’s Day, 2021

Mera number one

A new season is here

‘Look dad rain’ ‘can I stand under it’ ‘this is the worst day ever’

Throwback to 3 years ago and to whoever owned this coat, feel free to pass it on to me

My good friend @christinelid drew this for me. I LOVE IT!

Nothing much to see here but your boy living his dream of being a part of a @weareemmanuel Christmas production with world class musicians like @lukefell @caleb.tamplin @dan_night @meganlaramae @larissa_matson @tomphelanmusic @jareedajean @xx_br0sephus_xx @ysabelbain @maddyhhanton @jess_debenham. Mariah was right, there can be miracle when you believe. Merry Christmas everybody! Joy to the world! The Lord has come

One of my absolute highlights this year was nailing the settings on this tripod mounted camera. And getting to know @ads.jenkins better came a close second

YES IT’S FINALLY HERE 🙌 Over 50 crew, 6 weeks of filming and countless hours of editing and exporting, Light In The Dark Place premieres tonight at 8 pm on YouTube. So proud of everyone involved in making this happen! Christmas 2020 let’s go 🎉 WeAreEmmanuel.com/light

@buttonandblue

Brighton today was peak 💯

You should hear me share stories of how enamoured I get in Tesco - Indian living in England

Shout out to the best in the world who’s Saturday morning photo shoots get interrupted by requests for more milk in cereal

My gorgeous Tali Beth is 7 today!

My wife is today’s date 10/10 😏

9 years ago today, I became a dad. High 5 🙏🏽

So last week, for the first time in 9 years, all our kids were in full time education. I took the week off to celebrate this occasion with my beautiful wife in our beautiful city. The good Lord was kind to us by blessing this time with incredible weather. Can I get a Hallelujah 🙌

It propels is through hardship and exhaustion toward a worthy end. What’s your quest?

First time on the beach without any kids in about 9 years. What is this feeling

@buttonandblue x @brighton

12 years ago today I moved to England. Whilst some of my friends (@finercoffee) have looked into (unsuccessfully)deporting me, these have been the most incredible 12 years of my life. I love that I get to live and love here. Sometimes even the most mundane moments remind me of this blessing, like when I’m choosing cereal in Aldi 😅 Big love to all my friends and family here

First day back at school for the girls! Big respect to all the parents who home schooled. We didn’t. Also, my kids have better threads than me.

5 weeks away from our home, staying in big houses with plenty of room and outdoor spaces, got us questioning our decision to live in a tiny North Laine house. But spending today walking around our city reminded us why WE LOVE LIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF BRIGHTON 🙌

Build your life on a rock (Figuratively speaking of course)

What we expected the holiday to look like vs what it actually was

The legend with the dulcet welsh tones has left the building So grateful for Joe and all that he’s brought to the team during his internship year. His eye for detail and desire for excellence is second to none. We’re going to miss you loads Joe.

Our favourite little model turns 3 today 🎉 happy birthday big man 🎂

Happy 10 year wedding anniversary, my love

Happy birthday to the most inspiring woman I know. Top of the list.
