Stephen Cottrell says the nation has learned to live with wrongs when it should be trying to change them2 days ago
This Monday, we're hearing Liam's faith story.
Liam is the Youth Worker at St. Martin's Church - and his story is another inspirational read!
'Although I grew up in a Christian household, I wouldn’t say that I took on my own faith until I was 16. You could say I had all the head knowledge needed up to that point but It hadn’t made the journey south to my heart until I was 16.
I am a Cornish boy, born In Penrice hospital St Austell to a Cornish mum but my Dad being from England (Oxford), I grew up in a traditional Methodist church in Par and for most Sundays in my early teens it was a choice of church or football, with football winning probably 99% of the time!
It wasn’t until I was 15 and at Spring Harvest that I started to gain an actual interest in faith. I returned from that week with a desire to go to Soul Survivor that year, of which my mum knew that going would be a key stepping stone in my faith.
Fast forward to the week at Soul Survivor, it was there that I first truly experienced God and his love for me. I came away from the Bath and Wells Showground a different person, it was throughout the week that I slowly gave my heart to God.
The following 3 years would be transformative and would ultimately lead me to doing a degree in Theology and therefore arriving here in Liskeard.
Moving onto a year I was working out what I would do beyond college, my heart was set on working in the music industry as a producer, I applied to UCAS to go to Plymouth Uni to do a foundation degree in music production, however at a Bible study I felt God tell me not to do it. I ended up going home and telling my mum what I had felt God say, and she responded ‘Oh yeah, I know, God has told me that too!’ I was so surprised and then asked God to show me what to do instead. It wasn’t until 4 months later that he revealed that he wanted me to go and do children’s ministry in Swanage while training with South West Youth Ministries, this was confirmed to me when I was praying into whether God did want me to do this and head guided me to Romans 12:1-2 in The Message paraphrase and it says ‘So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life - your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life - and place it before God as an offering.’ I felt that I couldn’t ignore this calling and therefore applied for SWYM, and then also found out that this verse was the basis of the training with SWYM! Hallelujah.
Dear Father God,
Thank you for Liam's story and his faithfulness to sticking to your plan for him. Please bless him and his lovely wife, Hannah, in their work now and in the future.
Thank you Lord, for each and every one of these accounts, for their faith-building, faith-inspiring stories of you at work.
Help us, when we feel lost or unsure to remember that you are with us and want the best for us.
In Jesus' loving name.
Amen ... See MoreSee Less

🍎 Update on Cornish Food Banks 🥖
Our weekly update on Cornish food banks (linked below) lists details for the 19 major Cornish food banks, including opening times and procedures for getting food.
In the midst of the third national lockdown, dedicated Foodbank volunteers and staff across Cornwall are ensuring that those most affected by Covid-19 continue to have access to food.
Owing to extra complications brought on by Covid-19, many food banks would also appreciate financial donations instead of or in addition to food donations. You can find details for making financial donations in the update linked below. For most food banks you can either make a single donation or donate regularly by Direct Debit or Standing Order.
We would like to say thank you to each and every person involved in this selfless service and for the generosity community groups have and are showing to make sure that people across Cornwall don’t go hungry.
If you or someone you know could benefit from this information please send them the link. Our Weekly Foodbank Update automatically updates to the latest version each week. This means that the web link will always click through to the most recent edition (uploaded each Friday at 6pm).

⭐ Weekly Grants List Update ⭐
It’s that time of the week! Below is the link to our two weekly updated grants lists which currently detail over 100 available grants.
Our first grants list details possible funders that might support the work of Foodbanks, grass-root groups, and faith based social action projects in Cornwall.
Of particular note this week is the Ocean Housing Hardship Fund. Ocean Housings hardship fund supports local community groups, charities, and other voluntary sector organisations which are serving our local communities, and are experiencing unprecedented demand for services at this time.
Our second list details hardship grants for individuals in need. This has a huge range of grants for those who have worked in certain professions (including retail, construction, fishing, farming etc), support for disabled people, grants for education and retraining, young people, and so much more.
Of particular note this week are the Cornwall Council Crisis and Care Awards. Cornwall Council offers two separate awards. Crisis awards are for those in emergency or disaster situations to help them and their families with immediate needs. Care awards help vulnerable people to live as independently as possible in their community. You must live in Cornwall or have a local connection and have less than £1500.
Did you know the URL for the grants list stays the same? You can find the latest version at the same URL link every Friday at around 6 pm.e same? You can find the latest version at the same URL link every Friday at around 6 pm.

As the first anniversary of the first UK lockdown approaches, we reflect on the issues raised by our shared experience of the pandemic.5 days ago
I must admit to having a ‘wobble’ when the great Bishop Nick of Salisbury, the Bishop for the Environment announced his retirement recently. A great man who has done wonderful things.
Very pleased to share Bishop Graham Usher will be the next. I’ve been following him for a year and this IS a GOOD thing! 🤩👏🥳✨ #CarryOn
