The Salvation Army – 30 August 2026

The hymns of F***y Crosby featured prominently in the Redruth Salvation Army meeting, led by Singing Group Leader Ken, on 30 August. Although she went blind at the age of six weeks, F***y Crosby wrote thousands of hymns and had a beautiful way of expressing spiritual truths. We especially enjoyed singing one of her best known hymns, ‘Blessèd assurance, Jesus is mine’. Ken’s theme was ‘Spiritual Blindness vs Physical Sight’ and his message focused on the way Jesus healed a blind man on the Sabbath, as recorded in John Chapter 9. Corps member Becci was given the task of describing songbirds to us as we sat with our eyes closed – which was more difficult than it sounds! For our band contribution, we were treated to a video of Salvation Army Patrol – a group of musicians from Regent Hall in Oxford Street, London, featuring Major David Drake on the big bass drum. The singing group did Ken proud with their rendition of ‘To the Hills I lift my eyes’ to the tune of Ochills. Our closing song was ‘We are marching on with shield and banner bright’, which F***y Crosby could have written especially for The Salvation Army!

The Salvation Army – 23 August 2026

Father and daughter corps members Martin and Becci led Redruth Salvation Army Corps in worship on 23 August. After the reading of Psalm 96, we sang two prayer choruses, ‘As we are gathered, Jesus is here’ and ‘When I talk with Jesus’. John then led us to the Throne of Grace in prayer. Our testimony song was ‘Will you come and follow me if I but call your name?’. Several people talked about the coming of light after a time of darkness, with special reference to the solar eclipse. The singing group sang ‘I’m trying to be like Jesus’ and ‘To be like Jesus’ and the band played ‘When the saints go marching in’, which we really enjoyed. Basing his thoughts on the Sermon on the Mount, Martin talked about the sort of people we should look up to as being examples of Christian behaviour – citing Saints George, Andrew, David and Patrick and also Mother Teresa and Saint Thérèse of Lisieux. He also quoted a poem by former corps member Arthur Waller entitled ‘Heaven Sent’, about the innocence and joy of childhood. Children can also be an example for us of how to live lives of faith.

The Salvation Army – 16 August 2026

Crisps and a candle featured in the meeting held at The Salvation Army in Redruth on 16 August, as corps member Esther talked about how Christians should be salt and light in the world. ‘Faith is personal,’ she told us, ‘but it isn’t meant to be private. We must share it with others. We must shine!’ We tasted crisps with and without salt and watched a candle flame go out when it was covered with a glass, reminding us that, as Christians, we are in the world to make a difference. We must serve with prayer and love and not allow our faith to be compromised. The band played ‘Count your blessings’ and the singing group sang ‘No, not one’. Each singer had the opportunity to sing one line as a solo. Given the theme of the meeting, of course we had to sing ‘Jesus bids us shine with a clear, pure light’ and we put heart and soul into it. We also enjoyed listening to a video of Holy Ground Sessions singing ‘You are the salt of the earth’. Our final song was ‘I’ll go in the strength of the Lord’, with drum and tambourine accompaniment.

The Salvation Army – 9 August 2026

Special guest Major Cora-Joy Tucker led us in a meeting full of praise in The Salvation Army in Redruth on 9 August. She explained that praise was giving thanks to God and this was very often done by singing and playing instruments. There were six in the band this week and we enjoyed their rendition of ‘To God be the Glory’. The singing group was also joined by some guests and sang ‘Hand me down my silver trumpet, Gabriel’ with great enthusiasm. Our prayers focused on praise and thanksgiving, using verses from the psalms and the song ‘Give thanks to the Lord, our God and King’. The major used the story of a huge problem faced by King Jehoshaphat from 2 Chronicles chapter 20 to look at how we should react to problems in our lives. She assured us that victory does not depend on our abilities but on God’s provision of grace, love, mercy, forgiveness, peace and joy. We began our meeting by singing ‘O praise ye the Lord!’ and our final song was ‘Stand up and bless the Lord’. We finished the meeting by singing the Doxology, ‘Praise God from whom all blessings flow’.

Redruth Salvation Army
Sunday 26th July

Now we all like a good celebration especially a wedding it’s a good excuse to buy a new
outfit, it’s a time to catch up with old friends and make new ones, but what a surprise
everyone would get if someone turned water into wine, well that’s just what Jesus did in Cana when the wine ran out. Major Lindsey worked out that there would have been about 120 gallons of wine which sounds like a lot but Jesus gives in abundance and wants us to do the same, the more we give the more he gives us back.
We drink a lot of tea in the Salvation Army and though I can turn water into TEA
I don’t think I could manage 120 gallons of it.

The singing group sang a medley of Sidney Cox choruses, and the band played the tune
Glory to the Lamb, we were also accompanied on the piano by Linda and Becci.

Jesus is our friend and the more we give of ourselves the more we get in return, like John who received recognition for volunteering 21 yrs at the local Oxfam shop.

Our commitment whether volunteering or being a witness to our faith means life is good.

Blessings Esther

The Salvation Army – 19 July 2026

Inspired by the hot weather, Major Lindsey took the theme ‘A cup of cold water’ in the meeting held at The Salvation Army in Redruth on 19 July. She spoke about the importance of water and how a cup of cold water given in Jesus’ name is symbolic of his ministry. Having received the cup of water from him, we must pass it on to those whom Christ brings before us. She also stressed the importance of caring for each other in our church community. She was glad that the corps folk here have always considered this to be vital. We began the meeting with ‘A wonderful Saviour is Jesus, my Lord’ and John prayed for healing and peace following the song ‘As the deer pants for the water’. The singing group sang ‘I stand all amazed at the love Jesus offers me’ and the band played the tune ‘Silver Hill’. This is associated with the words ‘O Master, let me walk with thee in lowly paths of service free’. Our final song was ‘All over the world the Spirit is moving’ and, after the Benediction, the band played ‘So we’ll lift up the banner on high’.

The Salvation Army – 12 July 2026

‘Agents of Omnipotence’ was the intriguing theme of the meeting held at The Salvation Army in Redruth on 12 July. We read the story of the feeding of the 5,000 and Major Lindsey reminded us that the Lord can take what we give and do more than we ever could. The secret of doing the impossible is keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus. We began by singing ‘All hail the power of Jesus’ name’ and our prayer song was ‘Be still for the presence of the Lord’. Major Lindsey likes to introduce us to songs that we don’t know. On this occasion it was ‘Above all powers, above all kings’. We sang it a couple of times in order to learn it and hope we’ll sing it again soon. The singing group, with guest conductor Major Philippa, sang ‘I once was lost in sin but Jesus took me in’ and the band played ‘Sunset’. This tune is associated with the words ‘He walks with God who speaks to God in prayer’. Our final song was ‘The Lord’s command to go out into the world’, with the great chorus: ‘On we march with the blood and the fire.’

День жалоби за загиблими внаслідок ворожої атаки.

Сьогодні, 7 липня 2026 року, Україна схиляє голову в жалобі за життями, забраними цієї ночі внаслідок масованого ракетно-дронового удару по Києву та Київській області.

Найбільше постраждали столиця та місто Вишневе. Ворожі ракети й дрони знову вдарили по житлових кварталах — зруйновані багатоповерхівки, приватні будинки, десятки поранених серед мирного населення, серед постраждалих — діти. У Вишневому через пожежу на складських об'єктах виникла загроза повторної детонації вибухонебезпечних предметів, через що сотні мешканців довелося терміново евакуювати.

Немає слів, здатних утішити тих, хто цієї ночі втратив рідних, дім чи відчуття безпеки. Але є молитва, є плече поруч, є руки, готові допомогти.

Армія Спасіння в Україні висловлює глибоке співчуття родинам загиблих, молиться за зцілення поранених та за сили для рятувальників, лікарів і всіх, хто зараз розбирає завали й повертає людям надію.

Господи, прийми душі загиблих у Свої обійми та даруй розраду тим, хто плаче сьогодні.
