God of all,
we give you thanks for the gift of friendship: for the giving and the receiving;
for the opportunities and the challenges; for the laughter and the tears;
for the conversations and the silence; for the moments and the memories.
Draw us deeper into your love, and bless us with the confidence
to proclaim Jesus as our dearest friend, teacher and Saviour.
We ask this in his name.
Amen
Good evening, everyone. Welcome to Friday evening prayers. This evening, we are going to begin our prayers with a hymn which recognises that God, our Creator, watches over everything in His world and all that happens in it. In the darkness of the still night in the dawning of the daylight, in the mystery of creation,...

Psalm 98 1 Sing to the Lord a new song, for he has done marvellous things; his right hand and his holy arm< have worked salvation for him. 2 The Lord has made his salvation known and revealed his righteousness to the nations. 3 He has remembered his love and his faithfulness to Israel; all the ends of the...
Prayers for People Hurting and Distressed God of the heights and the depths, we bring to you those driven into the desert, those suffering with difficult decisions. May they choose life. God of the light and darkness, we bring to you those lost in the mist of drugs and drink, those dazzled by the use of...
Good morning, good Cornerstone friends, on this May morning, which is struggling to stay like spring. The readings this morning are similar to those of last Sunday. I don’t want to repeat what we had then nor contradict the wisdom we received from George. I hope this does the trick. How lovely is your dwelling place,...
By Revd George Mwaura Psalm 22: 25–31 and John 15: 1–8 Tangled up in the vines… This passage from John’s gospel is one that has created great comfort for many people, and at the same time, profound pain and suffering for others. So, let us begin by putting some context to it and, as we do so,...

Eternal God, we come as one and we come together to draw from the source of your life giving love.
To reconnect with one another and with you.
To listen to your word.
To meet you in prayer and praise and to learn and grow as your faithful disciples in Jesus name.
Amen
I imagine that any of you who have visited Iona will recognise the picture above. It is many years since we went there, but the atmosphere of the island made a real impression on me. I think of it still each time we have a prayer from the Iona community or use hymns written by John...
Morning Prayer in the Celtic Tradition Good morning on this last day of April – a very changeable month of cold and drought and finally refreshing rain. Today we pray in the Celtic tradition drawing on prayers from David Adam. This new day you give me from your great eternity. This new day now enfold me...
A reading from Psalm 22 25 From you comes the theme of my praise in the great assembly; before those who fear you I will fulfil my vows. 26 The poor will eat and be satisfied; those who seek the Lord will praise him – may your hearts live for ever! 27 All the ends of the earth will...
You Are Important to God You discern my going out and my lying down; you are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue you, Lord, know it completely. Psalm 139: 3-4 LSAB Sometimes we don’t let people get to know us completely because we are afraid they will discover something about...
