Scottish Heritage Evening
The final edition of the series of Scottish Heritage Evenings, led by Siobhan Argyle will be on Friday 14th November at 7.00pm in the Village church. The theme will be ‘In Memory Of…’ and we are invited to suggest some music, a poem or story in memory of a special person or event that has a special place in our hearts. A selection of these will be performed on the night.
Bereavement Service
Our annual service of memorial and reflection for those who have been bereaved will be held on Sunday 30th November at 2.30pm in the Village Church and all are welcome to come along to this special service.
Pastoral Care Group
Anyone with a heart for pastoral care and who is is interested in joining a pastoral care group in the church is invited to attend an initial meeting which will be held after morning worship on Sunday 23rd November.
This group is open to all who believe God has given them a heart for our church family and want to help people feel supported and loved. The meeting next Sunday will be an initial short meeting, with a longer meeting to follow once a date has been agreed. Please speak with James if you have any questions or would like more information.
Ladies’ Circle Fund-raising Evening
The Ladies' Circle would like to say a big 'thank-you' to everyone who helped and supported our fundraising evening on Friday 7th November.
Special thanks to the Nanas 'n' Papas for giving their time and support for a great musical evening. It was a great night that took us all down memory lane and great nostalgia.
Thank you, too, to Christine Robertson, Alex and Jennifer Mearns, Irene Miller, Irene Gilmour, Margaret Liddle, and Ann Jackson for their support to make the night a great success.
To all who attended and gave their support, it was very much appreciated. We are delighted to announce that the evening raised £210.00 for church funds.
Thanks again!
A Thank-you from South Africa
We have received a letter of thanks from the session clerk of Mamelodi East church in South Africa thanking everyone for their ongoing support. (Mamelodi East is the congregation most associated with our mission partner Sandra Duncan.)
In his letter, the session clerk said that the money from our Mission Circle donations will be used to give the children in the Sunday School a lovely, special Christmas party. Thanks again to everyone who 'pops in a pound' to our Big Red Bucket.
