A place to share prayer needs and encouragement for Christians and churches in Cornwall.
We believe that our God listens and answers. We have created a prayer board on Facebook for Christians and churches in Cornwall to join in praying together. A few guidelines:-
- Please post prayer needs that you are happy to have shared with others and keep any sensitive information confidential
- Please mark your post as a prayer need or giving thanks. We want to enter into both together.-
- Please keep this group focused on prayer and a place of joyful encouragement for the family of God..

A Prayer for Maundy Thursday 🙏
Lord Jesus,
Thank you for the sacrifice you made for the whole world in your body and blood.
We thank you that anyone, regardless of background, is welcome at your table.
We pray for those who are unable to commemorate this season as they face persecution. Amen.

Join us in a prayer for Holocaust Memorial Day which takes place every year on 27 January 🙏
Holy God,
On this Holocaust Memorial Day we remember the six million Jewish persons whom the Nazis murdered. Some names known to us but all known to you. We remember, too, those who survived and bore the physical and emotional consequences. We pray for our neighbours today, our Jewish communities who still feel the effects of the Holocaust and the fear that antisemitism continues to bring.
We remember, also, the thousands of other victims of the Nazi regime. Those who were disabled, gay, Roma, Jehovah’s Witnesses, political opponents, and those who were brave enough to stand up and say that what was happening was wrong. As we think this year of the need to ‘bridge the generations’, forgive us when we have allowed ourselves to hate others. Forgive us when we have chosen not to stand up against hatred, and forgive us when we choose to forget because it’s more comfortable than remembering the horrors of what has happened.
Yesterday, today and forever you are God. Your love endures forever. We hold before you all victims of genocide and hatred and ask that you bring peace and justice. May we never forget and may we be equipped to make a better world.
Amen.

A quiet space at day’s end. ✨
Sanctuary is a simple evening service of chants, wisdom, and prayer. It is a place to pause, breathe, and be held in stillness.
We hope to see you there!

A Prayer for World Leprosy Day from The Leprosy Mission, a Christian leprosy charity 🙏
Almighty Father, the giver of life and health, look mercifully on those who suffer from leprosy.
Stretch out your hand to touch and heal them as Jesus did during his earthly life.
Grant wisdom and insight to those who are seeking the prevention and cure of the disease; give skill and sympathy to those who minister to the patients; reunite the separated with their families and friends; and inspire your people with the task set before The Leprosy Mission, that it may never lack either the staff or the means to carry on its healing work, in accordance with your will, and to the glory of your holy name.
We ask this for the sake of Jesus Christ your Son, our Lord. Amen.
What actions can you take?
📨 Ask your MP to stand in solidarity with people with leprosy – actions.leprosymission.org.uk/page/184200/action/1?ea.tracking.id=wwnew

Collect Prayer for the Feast of St Wulfstan, English Bishop, in the time of transition from Anglo-Saxon to Norman rule.
“Lord God,
who raised up Wulfstan to be a bishop among your people
and a leader of your Church:
help us, after his example,
to live simply,
to work diligently
and to make your kingdom known;
through Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.”
