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

Sunday School & Youth Fellowship meet every Sunday during the school term.   They meet initially in the Church before moving to the Church Hall.

The Ladies’ Bible Study Group meets in the Church Hall on Tuesdays from 10.30 am to 12.00 noon.   All ladies welcome.

The Prayer Fellowship meets in the Manse at 7.00 pm each Tuesday evening   All are welcome to attend.

Ladies’ Bible Study Christmas Lunch : The Ladies’ Bible Study group is once more planning a Christmas Lunch to which all ladies of the congregation are invited. The lunch will be held in the Coolin Hills Hotel on Saturday 5 December at 12.30 pm. All ladies interested can collect a form from the Front Vestibule (only 1 name per form please, if bringing a friend please use two forms).   Completed Forms and the appropriate money should be put in an envelope and placed in the special box in the Front Vestibule by Sunday 29 November at the latest.

The aim of this event is to raise funds for the people in Nepal.
