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...

Good morning folks! God is good? All the time. Prayer Lord, as we prepare to enter the mystery of these three most holy days, we ask you to illumine our minds and hearts with the hope and promise of Christ’s passion, death, and resurrection. Give us eyes to see him in the breaking of the bread...
This is the point in Holy Week when the world turns for Jesus: halfway to Easter and there’s no turning back. Perhaps his Wednesday was as beautiful as ours has been – a day of warmth, a day of glorious sun, a day when you can almost see the trees awakening. Jesus was at the Synagogue...
Good morning, Cornerstone friends on this Wednesday of Holy Week. We have had our weeks of self-examination and preparation; we now have three solemn days ahead to remember what our Lord suffered for us; then the celebration of what he achieved in his time on Earth and through his disciples in each generation since. O God...
Good evening at the end of another day on our journey to Easter. As for me, I will call upon God and the Lord will deliver me. In the evening and in the morning and at noonday I will pray and make my supplication and he will hear my voice. He shall redeem my soul in...

God who calls us on our journey, as we remember Jesus’ time in the wilderness,
help us to cast aside those things that get in the way of hearing your word.
Help us to seek you in the places of bounteous beauty and of barren bleakness.
Help us to seek you in the faces of friends and in the smiles of strangers.
Help our devotion to be made real in the actions of our lives.
When we have looked deep into our own hearts and struggled with who we are,
send angels to minister to us and draw us out from our own wilderness
to fulfil our calling to serve you.
In Christ’s name.
Amen
Loving God, we approach Palm Sunday wanting to join with the crowd to praise the name of Jesus. But we acknowledge that, like them, we sometimes join in this praise unthinkingly, gaining more from the celebration of a service than we are prepared to put into it. So we ask you this evening to help us...
Good Morning! Welcome to our time of prayer on this Friday morning, as our Lent journey takes us towards a glorious Easter. Let’s praise God for protection and guidance: Lord of Life, whose loving care has brought us safely to the dawn of a new day, may we give thanks for your constancy – you are...
A reading from St John’s Gospel 7 … then he said to his disciples, ‘Let us go back to Judea.’ 8 ‘But Rabbi,’ they said, ‘a short while ago the Jews there tried to stone you, and yet you are going back?’ 9 Jesus answered, ‘Are there not twelve hours of daylight? Anyone who walks in the day-time will not...
