What’s it all about?

 St Ives is a town with a rich Christian heritage, with many churches now closing their doors, it is our desire at St Ives community church to see the next generation of Christian’s, worshipping God and serving their community together. We are asking God to ‘turn the tide’ and fill his church here once again. This means growing a devoted church membership for the long-term, supporting a full-time pastor and by becoming financially self-sustaining. We have identified 4 areas to focus on…

To build and establish our membership
  • from local churches with sending capacity
  • by asking people intentionally to join us
  • through the ‘Friends of Zion’ group
To re-focus and commit to prayer
  • To be a church devoted to prayer
  • To pray intentionally and specifically
  • To commit to weekly prayer
    To renew our approach to evangelism
    • To study the book of Acts together
    • To pursue the ‘Who’s your one?’ initiative
    • To ensure evangelism is an central focus of church life
    • We have partnered together with an American mission organization to put on a week of mission each September. 
    To further our work with the Peninsula Gospel Partnership (PGP)
    • To partner with PGP churches around Cornwall
    • To serve other churches as we are able to
    • To work together to see our county reached with the gospel
