| Welcome from the Superintendent
Minister |
Welcome to the Falmouth & Gwennap Methodist Circuit website.
We hope that it will give you information on the Methodist
Churches
in the area and the events taking place in them.
The Circuit consists of 20 churches
and covers the growing towns of Falmouth and Penryn along
with a variety of coastal and rural villages. Combined Universities
in Cornwall is based within the circuit boundary. |
|
We
work as a team across the Circuit with ministry being
provided
by 2 Full Time Ministers plus one half time
minister, 2 Active Supernumerary Ministers
and many lay people.
There are strong ecumenical links in many places with churches
of different denominations joining together regularly
for
worship, study and fellowship.
We hope that you will take the opportunity
to visit one of our churches if you are in this part of Cornwall.
We are sure that you will receive a warm welcome. If you want
to contact us, you are able to do so via this website.
With our prayers and good wishes,
Arthur Cowburn
Superintendent Minister

| Today's Reading |
|
"After the Sabbath was over, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices to go and annoint the body of Jesus. Very early on Sunday morning, at sunrise, they went to the tomb. On the way they said to one another, "Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?" (It was a very large stone.) Then they looked up and saw that the stone had already been rolled back. So they entered the tomb, where they saw a young man sitting on the right, wearing a white robe - and they were alarmed. "Don't be alarmed," he said. "I know you are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified. He is not here - he has been raised! Look, here is the place where they put him. Now go and give this message to his disciples, including Peter: 'He is going to Galilee ahead of you; there you will see him, just as he told you'." So they went out and ran from the tomb, distressed and terrified. They said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid. Mark 16: 1-8"
