News and Events
Arise and Build
We are all called to be Kingdom builders: Individually – in our own hearts, minds, homes, and wherever we connect with our communities (our spheres of in uence); and together as the church, seeking to discern where God is calling us to build together in Truro and the surrounding area.
Isiah 60:1-2
As we move through 2025 we want everybody in City Life Church to focus on really growing in relationship with Christ, further discerning his call upon their lives and our church, building on our ARISE principles, so that we will see the Kingdom of God advance.
We are planning a number of events that will continue to equip us to achieve this . . .
Saturday 15th – 21st February
A Week of Prayer
Including 12 Hours of Worship with Revelation 4:1 as our focus . . . “Look*, the door to heaven is standing open and the invitation is clear, ‘Come up here! I will show you what must happen next’.
(* To see with the mind, to perceive, know; to see, i.e. become acquainted with by experience, to care for, pay heed to.)
Saturday 29th and Sunday 30th March

God’s Gifts to the Church
During this session we will explore each of the Ephesians 4: Gifts to the church (Apostles, Prophets, Pastors, Teachers and Evangelists). We will be hearing from people operating in each of the different areas of gifting, and we will explore together what our own gift/calling is.
Saturday 24th May 2025 9.30am – 1pm
Hearing the Voice of God
This session will explore the different ways in which God’s speaks today and together we will explore how we listen and position ourselves to hear well. We will also look at the Spiritual gifts of prophecy, words of knowledge, tongues and interpretations.
Saturday 28th June 9.30am – 1pm
Releasing the Kingdom
This session will explore the whole area of impacting your spheres of influence (those areas of your life where you have the ability to shape the environment). We will identify the ‘keys to the Kingdom’ that are ours as followers of Jesus and will explore what it means to release heaven’s reality, or bind demonic forces and powers, through prayer, proclamation, praying for miracles, and operating in the counter spirit.

PRAYER
the Christian’s Vital BREATH
(77 days)
After a quick look on my bookshelf at home I found the following books on prayer: ‘Praying Successfully’ by Charles Spurgeon, ‘Rees Howells – Intercessor’ by Norman Grubb, ‘The Practice of Prayer’ by G. Campbell Morgan, ‘How to Pray’ by Pete Grieg, ‘Prayer: Key to Revival’ by David Yonggi Cho, ‘Reckless Devotion’ by Heidi and Roland Baker. There are others, but what stood out about these is that these are all people who have seen the most amazing moves of God in their communities, and through their ministries. This undoubtedly highlights the importance of prayer for us all, and partly why we are embarking on this series on prayer, which we will be following with this reading plan. It continues to be our experience that when we take time to pray, and particularly as we persist in prayer, we start to see God move more and more.
I have another book on prayer, it was given to me a number of years ago by the author who I met whilst at Bible School. It is called ‘Prayer – The Christian’s Vital Breath’ by L. A.T. Van Dooren. I don’t know too much about the author; I am not aware of him leading big revivals or preaching to the masses … he was simply a faithful follower of Jesus who had learnt how prayer needed to be at the heart of all that he did. He took the title of his book from a 19th Century hymn – ‘Prayer is the Christian’s vital breath, the Christian’s native air,’ and we are going to use that title for this series.
As we embark on this journey, thinking about the different ways we can pray, and then meditating on example of these types of prayer in the Bible (and as part of this time spending a week praying around our worshipping communities), let us all embrace this God-given gift more and more so that it becomes as natural (and vital) to us as breathing.
