Intimations – Sunday 23 June 2013
When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him?

Congregational Soup & Pudding : Sandor, Susan and their family wish to invite all members of the congregation to join them for a Soup & Pudding Lunch in the Church Hall after morning worship.

Crèche: There is a crèche in the Church Hall behind the Church if anyone wishes to leave their children there during the morning service.

Christian Aid : Rev. Geoff McKee wishes to convey his thanks to all at Portree Parish who helped with Christian Aid this year. Portree raised a total of £413.90 which will obviously increase once Gift Aid has been added.
Holidays : The holiday period will soon be upon us and members of the congregation will be visiting many different parts of the country. If anyone visits a church elsewhere and finds that, like Portree Parish Church, spare copies of a magazine are available to visitors then the Magazine Committee would be extremely grateful to receive a copy. These can provide ideas for future articles in our own magazine
Any magazines obtained can be placed in the Magazine Folder in the Front Vestibule.
Talents : The Stewardship Committee would like to thank the Sunday School children for their help and full participation over the second two weeks of the Talents campaign. The Committee said “their contributions said more than we ever could” !
