A time for everything 1 There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: 2 a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot, 3 a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to tear down and a time to...

  6 On this mountain the Lord Almighty will prepare             a feast of rich food for all peoples, a banquet of aged wine –             the best of meats and the finest of wines. 7 On this mountain he will destroy             the shroud that enfolds all peoples, the sheet that covers all nations;                 8 he will...

Good evening everyone. I hope you have had a fruitful day and can find some blessings that you can reflect on as we prepare for the night ahead. I have chosen a passage from St Luke this evening. It seemed appropriate to reflect on the fact that, however fearful we become because of the difficulties we...

Good morning, everyone. I hope you had a restful night. I have chosen this morning’s Bible passage to reflect the fact that, although we cannot meet together in one place, nevertheless we are able to join together in our common faith and common concerns. I also wanted to remember that Friday is the day when we...

The Glory of the Lord in Creation O Lord, our Lord, how excellent is your name in all the earth! Psalm 8 begins and ends with that verse. The Psalmist speaks of the greatness of God, which assures the worth of mankind. God, the all-powerful Creator, cares for His most valuable creation – people. Then God...

God First But seek first the Kingdom of God and all these things shall be added unto you. Matthew 6: 33 God tested Abraham by telling him to take Isaac his only son, whom he loved, to Mount Moriah and sacrifice him as a burnt offering. They travelled to Mount Moriah and, just as Abraham was...

Good Morning, Living Stones.
God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, that everyone who has faith in him may not perish but have eternal life. It was not to judge the world that God sent his Son into the world, but that through him the world might be saved.
We come to you this morning, Lord, like the disciples in the upper room:
locked in and fearful, dressed up with only downstairs to go to.

Good evening, Living Stones. I trust that your day has been well spent in spite of the enforced isolation. So let us join with one another in this time of prayer to emphasise our togetherness. Christ the healer, thank you for the variety and richness of our individual stories and the weaving of your presence through...

Good morning, Cornerstone friends. Let us draw aside together to give thanks for this new day. Be conscious of nothing except your own breathing: in — out          slowly,         in — out         a natural rhythm. I was on retreat many years ago in Lee Abbey,...

Let us pray. Please, may we have a peaceful night. Amen Our thoughts and prayers are made in Jesus’ name. [Reflection on the day] Therefore those who were scattered went everywhere preaching the word. Humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, so that he may exalt you in due time. Cast all your anxiety on...

O, Lord we come to praise you.
As the night ends, so a new day begins.
