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..

Thought that this upcoming retreat on the Cornish Saint St. Ia might be of interest to some of your group members, looks interesting: Journeying on a Leaf:Retreat day on the Cornish Saint Ia 11am-4pm (10.30-11am Coffee) April 12th 2024 Cost £50 Location: Chacewater Village Hall, Church Hill, Chacewater, Truro, Cornwall TR48PZ. There is free parking very near the venue. Saint Ia of Cornwall literally missed the boat when her companions left Ireland, heading for Hayle in Cornwall. Fearing crossing the sea alone, she prayed and saw a small leaf floating on the water. She watched it and it grew larger and larger. She trusted God, the leaf became her coracle and carried her across the ocean.Ia’s story will be the creative ground from which to draw from in order to deepen your own spirituality. Using guided imaginative prayer, you will explore the journey of surrender, solitude, the leafy coracle and the wild elemental ocean, wind and sky. Her incredible odyssey across the sea will also offer beautiful material for your own creative writing. You'll be able to explore the idea of ‘journeying with nature’ through contemplation and art; working with an artist, you will have the opportunity to work with leaves and create patterns in clay – your work will be later fired in a kiln and sent to you as a beautiful reminder of the day and your own creativity. And slowing down and walking mindfully, you'll enter a leaf labyrinth, relaxing into a slow walking prayer on your journey to the Centre, to God…All are welcome and no writing or art experience is needed.
🌷 Happy Mother’s Day to mothers and women across the globe.
🙏 Join us as we lift them up in prayer and remember those in need of comfort this day.

Cardinal Vincent has called for this Friday to be a day of prayer for peace in the Holy Land and Gaza, ‘as a vital part of our observance of Lent.’
If you’re in central London, you can come to Westminster Cathedral where the Blessed Sacrament will be exposed on the High Altar after the 1.30pm Mass until 4.45pm. The Stations of the Cross at 6.30pm will also be offered for this intention.

“I beg you, bear with one another in love…” – Ephesians 4: 1 – 7.
On this #WorldDayofPrayer we share in this theme prepared by a group of Palestinian Christian women before the current conflict. To mark this day, Revd David Hardman, Methodist Liaison Officer, Jerusalem has shared this prayer:
God of love,
walk through the destroyed streets of Gaza and the fearful households of Israel
and hold all who grieve, fear and hate in your everlasting arms,
God of justice,
walk, once again, through the occupied land of Palestine
and at the checkpoints demand freedom for the oppressed,
God of peace,
walk in the corridors of power and show leaders content to sanction war,
your scared hands of sacrificial love as the antidote to brutal power,
Word of God,
be heard in us as you beseech us to bear one another in love,
that together love and justice can bring peace to the land we, desire to still, call holy, Amen.

I LIE DOWN THIS NIGHT…
I Lie down this night with God,
And God will lie down with me;
I lie down this night with Christ,
And Christ will lie down with me;
I lie down this night with Spirit,
And the Spirit will lie down with me;
God and Christ and the Spirit
Be lying down with me.
