Intimations – Sunday 2 July 2017
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.
Our Praise : Normally at our morning services the items of Praise are taken from Church Hymnary Third Edition (CH3. If you feel more comfortable sitting during the items of praise, please feel free to do so.
Crèche: There is a crèche in the Church Hall behind the Church if anyone wishes to leave their children there during the morning service.
Gaelic Service : On Sunday 9 July, immediately after Morning Worship, Lachie Gillies will conduct a Gaelic Service. It is hoped that as many people as possible, Gaelic speakers and non-Gaelic speakers, give support to Lachie for this initiative.
As a consequence of this there will be no After Morning Worship Fellowship on 9 July

Holidays : The holiday period will soon be upon us and members of the congregation will be visiting many different parts of the country.
