WPCU 2025 – Day 8: Waiting for the Kingdom.
The Nicene creed concludes that we look forward to the resurrection of that which is dead and to life in the age to come. As Christians we believe in hope, even in the darkest of places, even in death. It is the transforming love of God that dares us to hope.
This year’s Week of Prayer for Christian Unity resources ‘Do you believe this?’ are based on the Nicene Creed, marking the 1700th anniversary of the Council of Nicaea.

The third annual diocesan Safeguarding Conference takes place on February 24 at Truro Cathedral.
This year’s theme is Challenging the Myths: Domestic Violence and seeks to challenge and explore the facts and myths around domestic abuse, its often-hidden nature and growing prevalence.
During the day there will be the opportunity to hear from survivors and practitioners as well as explore how churches can recognise, respond, assist, and encourage those affected by domestic abuse.

*A Prayer for the New Year*
Father God we praise you for the ultimate gift of love in your Son.
What a marvellous light of hope you have given our dark world.
Thank you for fulfilling your law perfectly in Jesus, when not one of us could.
Help us lead others to your light.
Amen.

January is a time for predictions, planning, and preparing.
But there is a limit to what we can do.
Take heart from this little poem from Minnie Louise Haskins.

Because at the end of the day, GOD is the true light
It’s the World Day of Peace today and as we start this year of Jubilee, we join Pope Francis in offering ‘heartfelt good wishes of peace to every man and woman.’
Pope Francis’ theme for his message for the day is ‘Forgive us our trespasses; Grant us your Peace’. He encourages us to ‘disarm our hearts’ and invites us on a renewed journey of hope in which we open our hearts to our brothers and sisters and ‘restore God’s justice on earth’, moving forward to achieve ‘the goal of peace’.
The message finishes with a prayer:
‘Forgive us our trespasses, Lord,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
In this cycle of forgiveness, grant us your peace,
the peace that you alone can give
to those who let themselves be disarmed in heart,
to those who choose in hope to forgive the debts of their brothers and sisters,
to those who are unafraid to confess their debt to you,
and to those who do not close their ears to the cry of the poor.’
You can download and read the full message from the Peace Sunday page on our website paxchristi.org.uk/peace-sunday-2025/

At the turn of the year
The blessing of God the Creator,
there from the beginning;
the blessing of Christ our Saviour,
God-with-us in history and humanity;
the blessing of the Holy Spirit,
calling us into a future of hope:
be with each one of us,
our communities,
our world,
now and evermore.
Jan Sutch Pickard, A Book of Blessings, Ruth Burgess (Ed.), Wild Goose Publications
With every blessing for the New Year, from the Iona Community.

A New Year’s Prayer
Lord, You make all things new.
You bring hope alive in our hearts
And cause our Spirits to be born again.
Thank you for this new year,
For all the potential it holds.
Come and kindle in us
A mighty flame
So that in our time, many will see the wonders of God
And live forever to praise Your glorious name.
