Both Churches are at different stages in progressing with the requirements of the Covid Risk Assessment which needs to be completed before we can re-open, and more details on that can be found on the page Updates From The Minister. However, both churches are hoping to re-open around the first or second week in October. Please keep an eye here on the website where we will give a definitive date as soon as we can.
Over the past couple of weeks one or two people have been asking about the possibility of making a donation or being able to contribute some of their offerings to our churches in this time of lockdown. If anyone would like to like to do so this would be greatly appreciated. As you will all be aware, even although we are unable to gather for worship we still have financial obligations to fulfil so any help in this way would make a difference. Both Kirk Sessions would like to thank all who have been continuing to make their offerings via Standing Order and if anyone would like to consider changing to this means of giving that too would be helpful.
If anyone would like more information on this please contact our respective treasurers David Donaldson (01828 640017) or Peter Godfrey (01828 627028)
Or email myself (Andrew.Graham@churchofscotland.org.uk) and I can forward on your email to either David or Peter.
Thank you.
The Moderator of the General Assembly of The Church of Scotland, along with the leaders of all our Churches, has called for us to join together for prayer this Sunday, the 24th of May, at 7.00pm where together we can pray for our communities, our nation and our world at this difficult time.
The Moderator of the General Assembly of The Church of Scotland, along with the leaders of all our Churches, has called for us to join together for prayer this Sunday, the 26th of April, at 7.00pm where together we can pray for our communities, our nation and our world at this difficult time.
In response to the Coronavirus pandemic The Church of Scotland has called for all gatherings for worship to cease until further notice. This will include Sunday worship, house groups, youth groups and social gatherings – and will include all Easter services.
These are difficult and stressful times for us all and more than ever we need to be mindful of how we can offer support to one another and continue to hold one another up in prayer. So, in addition to your own loved ones, please hold our church, our community, our nation and indeed all who are most affected by this virus in your prayers asking for God’s love to guide, support and encourage us all at this time. The Church of Scotland in line with other churches has called for us to participate in a National Day Of Prayer, this coming Sunday the 22nd of March. So please join us for that at 7.00pm when together we can all come before the Lord.
In accordance with advice given by Presbytery in response to the coronavirus pandemic, all events other than Sunday worship will be suspended for the time being.
This includes the prayer meeting and the Bible study, the choir, youth groups and Friendly Friday, and also applies to the Brownies and Guides who also use the church.
Any further developments will be posted on the Web site as and when they occur but if anyone has any questions please contact the Minister.
