Those in employment know a busy day means answering emails, making phone calls, eating lunch, writing reports, and so much more; busy parents come home from work and have to prepare meals, oversee the homework, unload the dishwasher, fill the washing machine and much more. There is a place for multi-tasking, we all have to get things done. Recognizing this can I just ask for one real consideration – don’t forget to make time for listening and for other people. Consciously try to have a meal together, go for a walk together, sit and have a drink together, sit on the child’s bed for a few minutes; and in these moments really listen. If someone starts to talk to you put down your phone, close down the laptop, switch off the television and look at the person. Then listen without letting distractions get in the way. This seemingly simple thing can, in all walks of life, make and retain relationships and friendships, solve problems, promote companionship and a real sense of belonging and wellbeing. It’s amazing what real listening can do and in giving of your time and your attention you are doing exactly what Jesus did for some of the most unlikely people. It changed their lives, it could change yours too. Happy listening. Keith 22 3 L'7(45 Our Harvest celebrations were held at the end of September and commenced with the morning service being led by Mr Patrick Clark of Liskeard. The lessons were read by Rev Howard Curnow and Tess Stone, and the organist was Denise Gribble. The harvest table was laden with tinned and packaged items were donated to Launceston Foodbank. Flowers and fresh produce were given by courtesy of the Launceston Young Farmers who held their Harvest Festival at our church on the previous Thursday evening. They wel- comed members from the chapel and provided entertainment and a supper afterwards. In the afternoon a well attended concert was given by local artistes, and was chaired by Rev Anne Curnow. The performances included duets by Sue Bat- ten and Kath Hooper, Andrew Tunbridge on the Double Bass, songs by the Mothers and Daughters - Gill, Primrose and Florence Taylor and Jo, Jessica and Katie Maynard, items by the Lifton Singers, a Gardening Poem by Sue Batten, Leslie Mazur-Park on Oboe, a piano recital by Mary Mazur-Park and a duet ‘We Plough the Fields with tractors’ by Daniel Batten and Jo Maynard which was accompanied by Denise Gribble. The music was led by Mary and Leslie Mazur-Park. The concert was a great success and raised the sum of £225.60 for ShelterBox, with an additional sum of £97.30 being proceeds from the Launceston Young Farmers Harvest Festival, making a total of £322.90. A delicious harvest tea was enjoyed by everyone afterwards. The following week Rev Anne Curnow led our October Family Service and music seemed to play a great part. The hymns were accompanied by Denise Gribble on organ and Becky Martin on flute, with the children and adults – those who wanted to – joining in most of the hymns with various shakers. Elaine Shillaber played and sang ‘One more step along the world I go’ on her guitar. The children also took part in the service –Jemma read a prayer, a poem was said by Florence and Katie, and readings by Primrose and Jessica. Elaine was also asked to share a gift – and she chose to share her 4 21 of the Holy Spirit and the ways in which God is calling us to exercise Our gift of letter writing, something which is declining due to modern technology.

We see ourselves as part of a story of the grace of God, made manifest in Cornwall, which stretches back many hundreds of years, possibly to the very earliest days of the ChrisNan faith. It’s a story that calls us on into the future too, in loving mission, ministry and service. As we follow ‘The Saints Way’ we will be deeply commi+ed to Christ and to all that he calls us to be and to do; and to Cornwall, this very special place with its own parNcular culture, history and idenNty. We can only follow that Way faithfully if we see it as our corporate calling, as the body of Christ. So we encourage ministers of the gospel to come and join us here who are commi+ed to seng the whole people of God free in their God-given calling, to make Christ known here in Cornwall, today.
