Kingdom People

A Methodist Way of Life: Lent Course Week 1
Our Lent Course began yesterday afternoon via Zoom, and we were joined by 22 people.
I am sure that all of our church family will be delighted to read the article below from Monty (and James) who is currently in Kenya. It is a joy to read about this amazing young man and I would ask you all to keep him in your prayers.
Lent in the Christian calendar –

Some people give something up like TV, chocolate
or social media, and others take something on.
The article below is taken from the Methodist Church UK website and has been written by The Revd Dr Stephen Mosedale. Daily Bible readings and prayers are available online or via the app.
'Whenever you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.' (v. 6)
Our latest service has been posted on You Tube. This Valentine's Day service
is led by Rev'd Andrew Mumford with contributions from Jo and lots of friends
from Falmouth and Mawnan Smith.
You can find a link to all our services on the Falmouth and Gwennap Methodist Circuit website.

Below is a piece written by Jo describing her first day.
Enjoyment was had by all this week at the Elevenses Zoom on Wednesday hosted by Zara.
Following the Craft Zoom, organised by Deacon Jane, held this Tuesday for the second time, Zara hosted our first Coffee Meet on Zoom this morning, details below if you would like to join us next week for either activity.
