Cornerstone’s Vision and Mission: Leading Prayer

Cornerstone’s Vision and Mission: Leading Prayer

What does prayer mean to you? What is the difference to private prayer and public prayer? What does prayer mean in the context of Christ the Cornerstone? These were some of the questions discussed during a workshop at the Church on Saturday 22nd August.

The workshop was open to anyone in Church who is interested in leading prayer in worship. It began with a discussion about the use of music and images in prayer and how they can be used to stir the imagination and awaken the senses.

What does a community centred on Christ look like?

This was the question that the congregations at Cornerstone were asked this Sunday (26 April 2015). The Bible readings from Acts chapter 4 and John chapter 10 spoke of God going to any lengths to include people, but recognised that we needed to want that for it to be real. So what one word would you use to describe that Christ-centred, resurrection community. Check out our facebook page to see what we said.

Christ is alive!

This will always be the latest news.  It was news on that first Easter Sunday, when no-one could quite believe it. Jesus’ followers and those who wished him gone were all quite sure that he was dead.  You don’t hang on a cross in that way and survive it. But the truth that began to dawn on them all was that God had done what was promised and had broken through death and Christ is alive.
