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 29^th September.

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 Harris and Uist Free Churches this week as they host their holiday clubs.
