We come to together in worship at 10 a.m. on Sunday November 1st for a service to mark All Saint’s Day, led by Lay Preacher, Karen Smith. We will be remembering those associated with our community who have passed away in recent years as part of the service.
‘Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, 2. fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.’ Hebrews 12
MacMillan Coffee Morning
We had a great time on Tuesday with our coffee morning. Thank you to all who came or donated. We raised £209.63.
On September 20th, we held a service marking our 8 year relationship with Ocean Stars Trust, a charity set up to help people in Sri Lanka following the 2004 tsunami.
The service focused on hospitality which Jesus exemplified and is a fundamental tenet of Sir Lankan culture.

Eco Church Activity
from Eco Congregation Scotland
Provoke and reshape, dear God whatever, in us, has settled and hardened into exploitation and destruction; transforming it into preservation at the cost of adaptation- so that, with Christ, we may delight in the birds, learn from the trees, and speak peace to wind and waves by the transformation of life, work and worship to which you so urgently call us; through signs of the heavens and the Earth, discerned through the Breath of Life, the Spirit. Amen.
