Praying for the Diocese of Truro
To help us with that as a whole diocese, we are offering some prayer resources, which we invite you to join in with and to make use of in whatever way works best for your setting.
Sens Warbarth – Saints Together
On Monday, October 14, the eve of the first interview day for the new Bishop of Truro, we will gather in person in Truro Cathedral for Choral Evensong at 5.30pm. The focus of our prayers will be the following two days (October 15 and 16) as the CNC seeks to appoint the next Bishop of Truro.
Weekly Prayer Gathering
This is an invitation to you to join us in prayer for our diocese and for the appointment process for our new Bishop.
We meet each week from 8.30am – 9am on Wednesday mornings, starting on Wednesday, September 25.
Sens Warbarth will be led by a small team of Curates, using a mix of liturgy, Bible reading and reflection, and praying together in small breakout groups.
Everyone is invited to join this time together and join in praying for the future ministry of our diocese. If you are unable to join in person on a Wednesday morning, there is a prayer guide available to allow you to join at your own time and place.
PRAYER CARDS
Bishop Hugh has written a prayer for the diocese, which you are invited to use in services and other settings as often as possible. If you would like to receive the postcard for your own use or for your church, please contact Church House. The prayer is also available below.
PRAYER IN SCHOOLS
Our schools team has produced a pack of resources for all our church schools – and any others that want to join in – helping them to pray for one another, their schools and for the life of the church in Cornwall.
PRAYERS FOR OUR CROWN NOMINATIONS COMMISSION REPRESENTATIVES
Holy and unchanging God,
Creator of a changing world,
grant your servants, who have been called to discern the next Bishop of Truro,
the necessary gifts of wisdom, courage and insight,
as they seek your will and your way.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord,
Amen.
