Intimations – Sunday 19 June 2016
Alpha to Omega Lectern Fall : This fall has been donated as a gesture of thanks to those who have, over the years, supported Portree Hospital financially or in other ways, enabling the staff there to make a difference in the lives of local people such as the Haldanes.”
After Morning Worship Fellowship : After Morning Worship today Tea , Coffee, Juice and biscuits will be served in the Church. Please stay behind for as long or short a time as you can manage and enjoy a time of fellowship with other members of the congregation and with visitors to our church.
