‘How is business?’ is a question frequently asked by our customers. And our response is, ‘It’s tough but we are still here!’ These are challenging times for all booksellers and whilst the work continues to be hard, we are learning new and creative ways of working and are excited by the future.

External work
Over the last two years Cornerstone has developed important partnerships with denominational networks, Christian organisations, schools and local churches. Regular customers know only too well the sight of boxes piling up in the corner of our coffee shop waiting to be delivered, collected or taken out to conferences.

External work is becoming a crucial part of our business, as is the selling of Christian books through our local
churches Bookshop-in-a-Box scheme. Internal development With the decline of Christian bookshops across the North people are travelling further to shop with us. Our website plays a crucial role in making us known and customers tell us they still like to see before they buy. We are encouraged by this trend and have important plans for internal development in 2014:

 Expanding our best sellers i.e. Bibles
 Making biography and fiction titles more accessible to customers downstairs
 Developing an upstairs room into a brand new loan Resources Centre for opening in the Autumn.
 Recruiting more volunteers to join the coffee shop team

There are lots of opportunities to get involved at Cornerstone.

Do speak with us if you would like to know more about volunteering.

Bradford Metropolitan Food Bank

An article in the March Link stated that, after April, the foodbank operated by the Light Church will limit its service to postcodes which extend into the centre of Bradford.  However, there is a food bank which provides food bags for the whole of the Bradford district and surrounding areas. The following is an account of this bank; I am indebted to Keith Thomson, a member of the committee, for this information. Bradford Metropolitan Food Bank is the original food bank in Bradford. It opened in 2004, as an extension of the Curry Project for rough sleepers, started by Lashman Singh. It provides food bags for the whole of the Bradford district and collects food from the same area. It is non-sectarian, supporting people of all faiths and none, and the volunteers are from all sections of the diverse Bradford community. The main committee, the original seven and up to fifty volunteers are just that. We are all volunteers and no-one is paid. We never see the people and families that...

Parables for Bradford - Week 1 Service Sheet (pdf) Opening Prayers: O God of all, lead us from death to life, from falsehood to truth. Lead us from despair to hope, from fear to trust.

Peace to all races, all women, all men. The peace of Christ above all peace. The peace of the Prince of peace, to you and to me. Amen. Song STF 262 All glory, laud, and honour. Address: Mark 4. 34 tells us that Jesus did not speak to the crowds unless he used parables. Matthew 7:28  tells us “ Now when Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were astounded at his teaching. ” In the gospels, there are at least 9 verses like this, where we hear that the Crowds were astounded at Jesus’s teaching. Much of his teaching was in Parables. In the next few weeks, we will be looking at some of his Parables, ...
