This Service was held via Zoom. Led by Revd Ernesto Lozada-Uzuriaga Preacher: Revd George Mwaura Introit: Holy Ground Call to Worship and Greetings Come as you are to the house of the Lord. Come with your mustard seed faith; come even with your great faith; come even without any faith. It is for you that God sent his...
By Revd George Mwaura Ezekiel 17: 22–24 and Mark 4: 26–34 God of wonders, we thank you because you have said to us that, when we pray with faith the size of a mustard seed, we can move mountains. Lord, we do have faith; please help our doubts not to override our faith in Jesus’ name. Amen...
God of grace and growth, you have called us to plant the seeds of your kingdom in the fields of your world,
and to trust you for their development and flourishing, and so we praise you.
We thank you for the abundance of your creativity, for the transforming nature of your Spirit,
for the power of small beginnings and for the mystery of hidden growth in Jesus’ name.
Amen
Good evening, everyone. Welcome to Friday evening’s prayers. Let’s start tonight with a hymn. I think the words of this one say it all, as they focus our minds on those things which are really important to us, but which we sometimes take for granted. ‘Think of a world without any flowers.’ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDfMFOuYbLs Haven’t we been...
In Praise of God’s Glorious Creation In the glory of this summer morning breathe in the scented air. In the cool of this summer morning rejoice in the colour of the brilliant dawn. At the beginning of this summer morning let us take time to praise God our Creator and Sustainer. Come, Cornerstone People, and let...
A reading from Psalm 92 1 It is good to praise the Lord and make music to your name, O Most High, 2 proclaiming your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night, 3 to the music of the ten-stringed lyre and the melody of the harp. 4 For you make me glad by your deeds, Lord; I sing...
Praise to Our Sovereign God Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth! You have set your glory in the heavens. Psalm 8: 1 NIV® When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are...
Good morning, Cornerstone friends on a lovely summer morning. Today we remember St Columba from the sixth century, who established an abbey on the island of Iona, still a centre of worship and a base for a large world-wide community of faith. Like us, Columba lived in uncertain times. Hear my teaching, O my people; incline...
Hello, everyone. Over the past fifteen months I have recorded several ‘Orgelbuchlein’ chorale preludes of J.S. Bach. They are particularly well-suited to our organ at Cornerstone. We open tonight with the prelude based on ‘Vater unser im Himmelreich’ (‘Our Father who art in heaven’), one of Luther’s greatest hymns. The original hymn is in nine stanzas,...
Led by Revd George Mwaura Preacher: Revd Ernesto Lozada-Uzuriaga Welcome Welcome to the house of God. We have come from all the corners of the earth. Welcome to the hospitality of God. We come as we are; we bring our life, our stories, our journey. Welcome, brothers and sisters. We are the rainbow people of God....
God of all the world, we praise you for calling us into your family, for choosing us even though we are imperfect, for trusting us even though we make mistakes, for not giving up on us even when we give up on ourselves, for offering so much more – even when we would settle for less....
Good evening, everyone. I’m writing Friday evening’s prayers earlier than usual this week, as we will be away for a couple of days visiting my father-in-law. It’s Sunday afternoon and the beautiful sunshine is streaming through the window. What a joy to see the beauty of God’s world on a day like today! And so, we...
Welcome to yet another sunny dawn! Welcome, friends and strangers to our morning prayer on this first Friday of what has been, thus far, a beautiful, flaming June. Receive my gratitude Lord for the beauty of this day and the unfolding promise of fresh vistas, new thoughts, bright colours, good words and lively music to ignite...
A reading from Peter’s first letter 8 Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins. 9 Offer hospitality to one another without grumbling. 10 Each of you should use whatever gift you have received to serve others, as faithful stewards of God’s grace in its various forms. 11 If anyone speaks, they should do...
