55+ Fellowship
The first meeting of the new “session” will be on Friday 29th September at 2.30pm to 4.00pm and NOT on Friday 15th September as previously advertised. This is due a wedding service being held in the church on Friday 15th September.
On 29th September we hope to have our elder Davie Chisholm as our speaker and to have our elder Torquil Macleod leading the singing.
Please come along - you will all be made very welcome.
Pastoral care of young people leaving home.
Over the next few weeks, several young people associated with our congregation will be leaving home to study or work on the mainland. This will be a challenging time for them and we want them to be assured of our continued pastoral interest in them.
It would be appreciated if parents, or grandparents/guardians, would provide us with their names and addresses so that we can contact them.
We also wish any who are commencing work or courses of study locally every encouragement and God’s blessing as they follow their chosen career.
It would be appreciated if you could email the required information to the office at [email protected] by Friday 29th September.
Providence Christian School Prayer Meeting
All are warmly invited to a prayer meeting at the Providence Christian School this Monday 11th September at 7.30pm.
There will be a time of fellowship afterwards over a cup of tea. For those unable to join in person, a ‘Teams’ option is available.
