Holiday Tweenies will continue through the holidays for pre-school children and those in Pr 1 and Pr2.
Today the children are receiving a candy cane along with a card informing them that a gift has been made to the charity CRY from the coins they place in our collection plate each week. Many thanks for continuing to enable the children to make charitable donations that are relevant to them. Some of our Bible Class pupils recently participated in the CRY heart screening programme.

Death
We were very sorry to hear of the passing of Maya Miller, Goathill Road, on Wednesday 27th November. We remember all the family at this time, especially her daughter Angela with her husband Borja, and her son Jamie with his wife Christina. We also remember the grandchildren, Lewis, Stuart and Nicola and the wider family and friends.
