Easing of Covid Restrictions
As some of the Covid related restrictions have been eased in recent weeks, it’s been decided that from today (30^th January) we will revert to using the main doors, in addition to the other exits, for exiting the church and the Seminary.   To avoid bottle-neck situations occurring at the doors, everyone is encouraged to remain in their seat at the end of the service and to leave pew by pew. 

The wearing of masks (except for those with a valid exemption) continues to be mandatory.   While retaining social distancing between pews is left to the discretion of congregations, the feedback received clearly indicates that using alternate pews is appreciated by many, particularly those with underlying health conditions.   This measure will remain in place for a while longer but it will be kept under regular review.

Communion Service Postponed

At its meeting on 19^th December, the Kirk Session decided, regretfully, to postpone the communion service due on Sunday 9^th January because of the increasing spread of the Omicron variant of the Covid virus.  We were looking forward eagerly to having the Lord’s Supper again after such a long time without it, and while it is disappointing to postpone it, the Session is hoping that we can hold it on 20^th February 2022, which is the usual date for our communion.  Please pray that this will be possible.  God strengthens his people through the sacrament of the Lord’s Supper, so we are eager to partake of it again as soon as we can.
