A Taize-style Service

for 1 hour
St Hilary
School Lane St Hilary Penzance, TR20 9DQ, United Kingdom

Led by a group of musicians from St Buryan Church, this Taizé-style service will reflect on healing, restoration and the sharing of God’s love in celebration of the Feast of St Luke.

The Taizé Community is an ecumenical Christian monastic community in Taizé, Saône-et-Loire, Burgundy, France, which was founded in 1940 by Brother Roger Schütz, and has become one of the world's most important sites of Christian pilgrimage, attracting over 100,000 young people each year for prayer, Bible study, communal work, and shared reflection. Central to its contemplative atmosphere are simple, meditative chants that support prayer and silence, but there’s no need to know the music beforehand; you can join in as you feel comfortable, or simply listen and pray.

Perranuthnoe: St Piran & St Michael

Welcome to Perranuthnoe Church.

Our lovely little church is set right beside the SW Coast Path and is open all day – do please pop in when you are passing. This has been a Celtic quiet place for hundreds of years, where people have found consolation and renewal. Have a look round, sit a while, and offer your own prayer.

This is a living church – join us on Sundays at 11.30 for worship, faithful Christian teaching, Holy Communion (most Sundays) and a great cup of coffee! We love meeting new people - you will be made very welcome. Children too – they have a special place in our church.

Please check out our midweek services and events and festive occasions, and consider yourself warmly invited.

The parish of Perranuthnoe is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs. The Diocese of Truro’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services.
