The internet has a new holy obsession, and it’s a priest. Father Jordan, a newly appointed vicar at St. Edward the Confessor Church in Romford, London, decided to bless us all by dipping his toes into TikTok, and let’s just say the response has been nothing short of a spiritual awakening. And by “spiritual awakening,” I mean, he’s got us all worshiping at the altar of hot priests—Andrew Scott in Fleabag levels of hot.

Father Jordan’s first TikTok post was supposed to be a humble “hello” to his new congregation. Instead, he sparked an internet frenzy that’s reigniting the Hot Priest discourse with a passion usually reserved for a Sunday sermon.

From “Bless You” to “Blessed Be His Gorgeous Face”
Let’s face it, we’ve all been in Catholic school, eyeing the “holy” figure in the room (don’t lie). But never have we seen a priest combine holy inspiration with swoon-worthy thirst traps like this. Father Jordan isn’t just breaking hearts, he’s breaking TikTok—and hearts, with one video at a time.
@thismorning From thirst traps to meaningful chats: how one hot priest is using TikTok to reach a whole new congregation.
Sure, his TikTok isn’t just about those perfectly framed thirst traps (though there are a few), but Father Jordan is using the platform to connect with a new generation. You know, the ones who might not make it to mass every Sunday but will happily hit follow for some spiritual guidance and, let’s be honest, a good dose of eye candy.

Holy Shakes, Batman: A TikTok Priest Like No Other
Father Jordan isn’t just your average priest. He’s doing what so many others can’t: making faith fun. And not just “fun” like a church picnic, but “fun” like a social media-savvy, meme-loving priest who knows how to grab your attention. He’s tapping into TikTok’s power to make spirituality relatable—and dare we say, desirable?
Sure, there are some shirtless videos that definitely make us take a moment to pray (for strength to keep scrolling). But underneath that chiseled exterior is a priest who’s sharing insights about faith, love, and the art of being a better person. And when he’s done, he leaves you thinking, “Wow, I’m spiritually fed—and entirely distracted.”
Thirst Traps, Faith Chats, and the Holy Grail of TikTok Ministry
Father Jordan isn’t the only one trying to make faith cool again, but he’s absolutely nailing it. TikTok, once seen as a platform for viral dances and lip-syncing, is now a space where spiritual leaders like Father Jordan can engage with followers in ways traditional outreach never could.

This isn’t just about eye candy (though let’s be real, it’s a big part of it). It’s about bringing people closer to the Church while also showing that you don’t have to choose between being good and being gorgeous.
Father Jordan is showing us that the thirst for knowledge, for community, and for connection can all exist on one platform—along with a good dose of jaw-dropping visuals. It’s all about balance.
From Meme to Meaningful: Father Jordan’s TikTok Is Your New Church
So, what’s the takeaway? TikTok isn’t just for trends and memes—it’s also a way to connect with people on a deeper, more meaningful level. Father Jordan is living proof that you can serve the Lord and serve up some serious looks.
Whether you’re tuning in for the deep spiritual reflections or because Father Jordan is, well, Father Jordan—he’s proving that faith and fun are not mutually exclusive. This priest is giving us the best of both worlds, and we’re here for it. Amen to that.
