Messages from the churches

Death of Pope Francis
Churches Together in Cornwall offer our prayers of thanksgiving for the life, faith and vibrant witness of Pope Francis. We also join in prayer with and for our Catholic friends and partners at this time. As we give thanks to God and pray for all who grieve, we celebrate the reality of Easter that shone so clearly from Pope Francis during his life and especially during his papacy. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.
The Revd Dr Dan Haylett, District Chair, South West Peninsula Methodist Disrict, The Methodist Church

🙏 You do not pull down, but lift up.
You do not knock down, but stand upright.
You do not curse, but bless.
You do not take revenge, but give grace.
You do not torment, but comfort.
You do not erase, but write. (…)
Thus, providential Lord, revive me,
made in your image and brought to life by your breath,
in order to renew the breath of your pure
enlightening grace,
protecting my sinful soul.

Churches Together in Cornwall offer our prayers of thanksgiving for the life, faith and vibrant witness of Pope Francis. We also join in prayer with and for our Catholic friends and partners at this time. As we give thanks to God and pray for all who grieve, we celebrate the reality of Easter that shone so clearly from Pope Francis during his life and especially during his papacy. May he rest in peace and rise in glory.

Praying for Cornwall on Good Friday
Our souls wait for the Lord.
Father, we commend to your faithful love
those in Cornwall who are crying from the depths;
help them to watch and pray
through their time of darkness,
in sure hope of the dawn of your
forgiveness and redemption;
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
💠
Show us, O Lord, the way that we should walk in.
Jesus, our companion,
when we are driven to despair,
help us, through the friends and strangers
we encounter on our path,
to know you as our refuge,
our way, our truth and our life.
🙏
Adapted from the Church of England’s Prayer During the Day for Good Friday.

Lent Week 4 – Inter Faith Relations
During the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity this year we reflected on the significance of the Nicene Creed, and on how this shared statement of faith can help us spread the Good News of the Gospel in today’s diverse and pluralist society.
A positive development in the decades since Nicaea has been a more respectful engagement with those of other faiths, a greater appreciation for the shared wisdom we can offer together on moral and ethical issues and greater collaboration and collective responsibility on issues of freedom of religion or belief for all. However, there is still much more work for us to do in this area to strengthen inter faith relations.
Scripture passage for this week: Proverbs 8:1-3

Pray with us today.
If we see the world through your eyes, Lord,
then we see a vision of our world as your love would have it:
a world where all who are weak are protected and none go hungry;
a world where your riches of creation are shared for everyone to enjoy them;
a world where mutual respect is expressed between different races and cultures and harmony descends;
a world where peace is built with justice, and justice is guided by love.
Give us the inspiration and courage to build it how you see it Lord!
That all may praise together and the only power exerted is the power of your love. Amen.
