INTIMATIONS
Covid :
While Covid is still present in the community, the majority of our congregation are now fully vaccinated against the virus.
At the last joint meeting of the Kirk Session and Congregational Board it was felt that we could now relax our previous strong recommendation that face coverings should be worn in the church.
The wearing of these face coverings will now be a matter of personal choice.
The cleaning and disinfecting regime in the church will continue, but at a reduced frequency. It will still be sanitised before each Sunday worship.
Sunday Evening Services :
Evening services are held in the church each Sunday and commence at 6.00 pm.
Ladies’ Bible Study Group :
Meetings will resume in the Church Hall at 10.30 am next Tuesday, 10 January.
The group will be delighted to welcome any ladies who would want to join them in fellowship and friendship.

These services are now closed for the agreed Winter break with services resuming on Tuesday 8 March 2023
