Good morning, Cornerstone people, on this spring morning. Be joyful in God all the earth; sing the glory of his name, sing the glory of his praise. Say to God, ’How awesome are your deeds! Because of your great strength your enemies shall bow before you.’ All the earth shall worship you, sing to you, sing...
Hello, everyone. You may remember the inspiring Amazing Grace Pilgrimage back in September 2019, when people walked from Christ the Cornerstone to Olney, ‘home’ of Amazing Grace. The walk concluded with a lovely service in the Church of SS Peter and Paul, Olney, in which our musicians took part. In our morning service today we heard...

God our Father,
may we look forward with hope to our resurrection,
for you have made us your sons and daughters,
and restored the joy of our youth.
We ask this through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.
Amen
Good evening, everyone. Welcome to Friday evening prayers. We are still in the season of Easter. As we look around us, particularly on days like today, as I write, while the sun is shining, we see signs of spring all around us: gardens full of daffodils, the churchyard in our village full of primroses, longer days...

A Barbecue on the Beach Good morning, Cornerstone Friends, on this cold but promising Friday at the end of the week when we began slowly coming out of lockdown. A walk round the shops just to look in the windows and a professional haircut have been highlights for me. Let’s give thanks for the day: God...
A reading of Psalm 4 1 Answer me when I call to you, my righteous God. Give me relief from my distress; have mercy on me and hear my prayer. 2 How long will you people turn my glory into shame? How long will you love delusions and seek false gods? 3 Know that the Lord has set apart...
Meeting the Risen Jesus Taking the bread, he blessed and broke and gave it to them. At that moment, open-eyed, wide-eyed, they recognised him; and then he disappeared – ‘Didn’t we feel on fire as he conversed with us on the road, as he opened up the Scriptures for us?’ Luke 24: 31–32 Message Study Bible...
Good morning, Cornerstone people. Are you still keeping at home, or have you ventured out to those activities that we can now enjoy: shopping, hairdressers, libraries, etc. Let us gather and share our thoughts and give thanks for being able to be more sociable this week. I will bless the Lord at all times; his praise...
Hello, everyone. Our music this evening continues to celebrate the joy of the Resurrection! We begin with a short improvisation that I created at home just before Easter on the ancient French carol melody ‘Noel Nouvelet’. In France the tune is well-known as a popular Christmas carol, but in England we more often associate it with...

By Revd George Mwaura Doubt if you will God whose light shines in the darkness, and who gave Thomas what he asked for, give us what we need-that we too may come to believe in the risen Christ. Amen He was a normal human being with multiple dimensions. I do not know anyone with a single dimension....
We come, Lord, from a world confused about truth.
We come with our own uncertainties into the presence of God, who is light.
Let us bring the story of our search for truth and share in fellowship the things we have heard, seen and touched.
Amen
Hello, everyone, and Happy Easter! The Lord is risen! He is risen indeed! Alleluia!! We begin this sequence with Bach’s great choral prelude ‘Christ lag in Todesbanden’ based on one of the finest resurrection hymns of the Lutheran Church. The chorale melody is underpinned with a driving contrapuntal motif, passed between alto, tenor and pedal. In...
