OUR PROJECTS
‘TOWN PASTORS PZ’
This project is at the “planning stage”. Town Pastors Penzance will be the successor to our very successful ‘Street Pastors’ project 2013 – 2020, which disbanded when Covid 19 social distancing made it impossible to work as before.
‘Town Pastors PZ’ plan to work in association with the entirely separate ‘Night Church Penzance’ project based at St. Mary’s Church in Chapel Street, since November 2023. We hope Night Church is better able to adapt to changes in the local night economy since our Street Pastors project was active.
Could YOU be a part of the new team? – Caring – Listening – Helping
We would warmly welcome new volunteers to help re-launch this service to our community. Unlike Street Pastors who are governed by the rules of Ascension Trust, it will not be necessary for future Town Pastors to be active members of any church. Bring your own gift of individual skills. Training will be given and uniform provided. There will still be a prayer element to the whole project for all who wish to join in.
If interested please email: penzancetownpastors@churchestogetherinpenzance.co.uk
Currently a small prayer group meets at 9.15 on Thursday mornings at High Street Methodist Chapel, for quiet prayer about this project and our town – or for some to ‘prayer walk’ our locality. All are most welcome – please let us know if you are interested by email.
We speak God’s blessing over our community and speak life over our town,
and we pray for families that are struggling in poverty and with ill health.
We bless every wholesome business with prosperity and growth,
and we pray for new investment, innovation and enterprise to come into our area.
We bless the land and the sea and those who work them, that their yield may increase and their labour be lightened.
We pray for our police, fire fighters, paramedics, life boat personnel and street pastors, that they carry out their roles with courage, wisdom and God’s supernatural protection.
We pray for our MP, our Cornwall, Town and Parish Councillors that they govern with wisdom, diligence and Godly values.
We bless our schools and colleges, that they excel as places of learning and,
we pray for the teaching and support staff. We pray for the children and teenagers that they will learn with diligence and ambition.
We bless our hospitals with a spirit of excellence in their care and pray for all patients that are treated there.
We bless the churches that they be renewed by the Holy Spirit and made ready for revival. We pray for each minister and their congregations that they will experience more of God’s presence.
We speak peace, hope and restoration over our community and over the hearts and minds of everyone in it.
In the mighty name of Jesus. Amen.
