Mothers Day - All Age Service This Week

This week we gather again in our new building in River Street for our Mother’s Day service and will continue in our series ‘Baking Through the Bible’.

As we return to the Book of Romans we’ll be thinking about how Motherhood is used as an example for all of us to wait with hope for the future, even in difficult and painful circumstances.  Do invite friends and family to this all age interactive service.

Refreshments will be served both before and after our gathering. There are plenty of transport options to get you to our new home and parking nearby. For more information about parking and transport, visit our ChristChurch website and click on the map on the front page.

NB: Electoral forms will be available to fill in at the service this Sunday. Please fill one in and hand to Debs. This week will be the last day to hand them in.

Small Group - This Week

This week we are in the final session, which will conclude our weeks in 1 Peter. Each week, God’s word has been helping us explore what it looks like to live as God’s people. We have been reminded how we should go about ‘engaging’ with the world around us. Over the weeks, we have been challenged to live distinct and different lives: leaving behind our former way of life and living ‘good lives’ (2:11-12) that surprise the world (4:3-4) around us. Peter has also shown us again and again that living distinctive lives in this way will, in many situations, arouse opposition. The Christians Peter wrote to were accused of doing wrong (2:12), they were suffering for doing good (2:22) and people were speaking maliciously about the way they lived (3:16).

When opposition comes, possibly it will come to the leaders in the church first. Certainly how the church treat one another in such a moment will be critical. So (1) Peter addresses leaders directly, (2) then turns to the church as a whole. Finally, in the closing verses, (3) Peter issues his closing encouragements. This week we are going to look at each of these three sections in turn and in each section we are going to ask two simple questions that open up the passage and apply it to our situation in Cornwall.

Rooted - Youth Event

On Sunday evening we welcomed more than 40 young people from churches across Cornwall to our first Rooted event! The evening involved fun, food and music alongside teaching from Colossians about how we are to be rooted and built up in Jesus. Many of the youth leaders who came from as far as Bodmin and St Ives have reported back of how much the young people enjoyed their time together – and so we are already planning the next Rooted event in May! We would love to thank the wonderful team of musicians, caterers and pray-ers who supported this evening – we are so grateful to the Lord for His work among us. 

Easter 2025

Join us this Easter at Christ Church for our ‘All Age’ services starting from Sunday 13th April . These will be held at our new location in River Street. There will also be a Maundy Thursday event held at St Kea Church that everyone is invited to, which includes a meal, worship and communion.

Weekly Prayer Points

Each week there will be a few things for our church life and church family that we can join in praying for:

1. We thank You for the gift of mothers and caregivers—those who nurture, guide, and love with patience and wisdom. Bless all the women who care for us, whether through motherhood or other acts of kindness. May they feel Your peace in their hearts and experience Your strength each day.

2. We ask for your strength and protection for your church across the world, for church leaders and members reaching out to transform their communities, and for Tearfund’s staff and partners working to help churches become centres of transformation. We pray that you would watch over them and put your protection around them.

3. We praise and thank You for the Rooted Event where many young people were able to hear Your word and be together in Christ. We pray for our leaders as they meet and plan for the youth groups next term. Please pray particularly for how our leaders can support families and youth during the upcoming exam period.
