North Cornwall Cluster of Churches
Trinity Sunday – 7th June
Additional Collect
Holy God,
faithful and unchanging:
enlarge our minds with the knowledge of your truth,
and draw us more deeply into the mystery of your love,
that we may truly worship you,
Father, Son and Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever, Amen
Holy Habits – Prayer
Listening – Invite God to speak to you this week. Actively listen and be open to God speaking to you today through Scripture, books, magazines you pick up, music you hear, circumstances or through conversations that take place today.
‘A man prayed, and at first he thought that prayer was talking. But he became more and more quiet until in the end he realised that prayer is listening.’ (S Kierkegaard)
Sunday Services
The church continues to be alive and active, but our buildings must remain closed.
We are recording short services in different styles and uploading these to our facebook group and YouTube (via our website

Sunday 7th June: Trinity
11am – All Age Worship led by Marcus Jones
Sunday 14th June: Trinity 1
11am – Morning Worship led by Rose Jones
The Julian Group and anyone who would like to join us, meets each in our own home at 7pm every Thursday. We light a candle and read a passage from the Bible followed by silence. Then we read the second passage followed by silence and ending with Compline or our own prayers. Different members choose the readings each week. This Thursday 11th June they are Matthew 5. 3-10 and I Corinthians 13 1-7.
Home Groups and Daily Prayer
Our Home Groups are staying in touch via phone, email and social media. We are praying regularly, especially at 9am. If you would like hard copies of spiritual resources, or need help getting on to facebook, please contact
Revd Rose (01208 592353 – revrosejones@gmail.com).
Worship and prayer at home
We have updated a section of the website with a variety of resources to help people worship and pray from home:http://www.northcornwallclusterofchurches.org.uk/worship-from-home/. If you know of someone who would appreciate any of these printed and posted to them, do let us know.
Cluster Zoom Meetings
We have started to meet together for fellowship through Zoom. Zoom is an internet based video conferencing tool that allows a host to invite others to a virtual meeting using a computer, laptop or iphone. Our host for the cluster is Rev’d Geraldine. Zoom is very easy to use and help is available to get you started. David Foster and Marcus Jones have kindly offered to do some one to one teaching sessions over the phone. Everybody is welcome to attend a zoom meeting and it is a lovely way to see each other in this time of social distancing, just let Geraldine know if you are interested and she will invite you along.

Diary Dates & News
Summer Fetes
Sadly all of the summer fetes have been affected by the coronavirus precautions. The St James’ Fete at St Kew, which would have been in July, has been postponed until later in the year.
The St Minver Fete and the St Endellion and St Peter’s, Port Isaac Fete, which would have been in August, have been cancelled.
We look forward to being able to gather again in our communities when it is safe.
