Holiday Club
The Epic Explorers holiday club had 80 children attending throughout the week. We explored the life of Jesus from the Gospel of Mark, learning that He is the Son of God who died for our sins.

Activities included crafts, games, songs, and even a tour of our church building.

The team would like to extend a massive thanks for your prayerful support and to all who contributed in any way.

Everyone is welcome to join us in the hall after the service this morning for some jungle songs and snacks.

Please remember tp pray for Harris and Uist Free Churches as they host holiday clubs this week.

 

Thank you from Kincraig Juniors Camp
Kincraig Juniors leaders would like to extend their thanks for your prayerful remembrance during camp week.

Please continue praying for the children who have now returned home, that they will continue reading their Bibles, remembering what they heard and grow in a relationship with Jesus.

Also many thanks to all who willingly provided items of baking.
