Led by Revd George Mwaura The live stream has now finished. Introit Greetings and Welcome Opening Responses Let us be still for a moment as we come before the Lord. … We come together today, as the people of God; called to be friends of Christ; living in unity, and acting with compassion. We are here together....
Loving God, your name is veiled in mystery, yet we dare to call you Father;
your Son was begotten before all ages, yet was born among us in time.
Your Holy Spirit fills the whole creation, yet is poured forth now into our hearts.
Because you have made us and loved us and called us by name,
draw us more deeply into your divine life, that we may glorify you rightly,
through your Son and our Lord.
Amen
Good morning to you all, God’s people, as this Friday morning brightens away from the sleepy darkness of restful night. Let us praise God together in this new day’s light. Thanks to you, O Lord our Preserver, who sustains our lives through the changing seasons of life and light. Through youthful spring and the soft light...
Creator God, you spoke into the silence and darkness, blowing clean life-giving air into space, warmth and life engulfed your creation. Solid ground formed out of gushing water and life appeared. You lovingly created the world and us. Now you look with sadness at the mess we have made of your creation and our desperate attempts...

A reading of Psalm 146 1 Praise the Lord. Praise the Lord, my soul. 2 I will praise the Lord all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live. 3 Do not put your trust in princes, in human beings, who cannot save. 4 When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on...
Good morning Cornerstone friends. Welcome back to regular daily prayer bulletins. When we took a break it was still high summer, now on my daily walks in the park I am picking blackberries from the brambles in the hedgerow, the days now feel that much shorter and families are preparing for children returning to school.

Loving God, may we be as those who abide with you;
those who walk blamelessly and do what is right;
those who speak truth from their heart, who do not slander with their tongue
and do no evil to their friends.
Then shall we never be moved from your presence.
Amen
God of the unknown journey, you call us to follow you,
even though we do not know where you might lead us.
You do not provide us a map, but you do offer yourself as guide and travelling companion.
You do not promise an easy path, blue skies, warm sun and pleasant company.
You simply asked us to follow you.
But you provide the nourishment and strength we need for the journey
and for that, Lord, we honour and glorify your name.
Amen

Jesus, our living bread, we have an appetite for you, and we come wanting to feed on your word.
Jesus, you offer life to the world, eternal life, raising us up on the last day.

Limitless God, thank you that we cannot contain you, that you are unfathomable and always up to something!
We worship and adore you.
Just when we think we have worked it all out, you surprise us!
Gracious God, we are truly blessed by you.
Thank you, that as we bow down humbly at your throne, we know that only you can satisfy our needs.
Praise you, Lord God.
Amen
Christ our Lord, your word says that we should cast all our anxieties on you because you care for us.
We must not be anxious about anything,
but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving,
we should present our requests to you, and your peace, which transcends all understanding,
will guard our hearts and our minds in Christ Jesus.
And so, Lord, we come as we are, trusting that you will give us your rest and peace in Jesus’ name.
Amen
