Earthquake Appeal

Turkey-Syria Earthquake Appeal

The Free Church of Scotland, through its Disaster and Relief Fund, has already sent £2,500 to Tearfund and £2,500 to Open Doors, to support the work being done to alleviate the suffering of those significantly impacted by the devastating earthquake in Turkey and Syria.

As a church, we bring all those affected before the Lord in prayer, and we are grateful to all the local organisations who are offering support of different kinds.

The Mission Board want to encourage congregations throughout Scotland to continue to pray for these countries which are in such desperate need, and to ask for God’s protection and comfort for all those who are affected, whether injured, traumatised or grieving. 

You can donate directly to help the people of Turkey and Syria via the following website:

https://www.tearfund.org/campaigns/turkey-syria-earthquake-appeal

You can also put your donation in an envelope marked 'Earthquake Appeal' in the collection plates at the church or Seminary. If paying by cheque, please make it payable to Stornoway Free Church’.

Hope Explored – 7th, 14th and 21st February
Do you ever wonder about all that is going on in the world around us, and where Christianity features in all this?  Or are you looking for a Hope that won’t disappoint you?

There are few emotions more powerful than hope. But these days, hope often feels hard to come by. Where can we find a hope that won't disappoint us?

Looking at the life, death and resurrection of Jesus in Luke's Gospel, this three-session series from Christianity Explored Ministries shows that Christianity is about real hope: a joyful expectation for the future, based on true events in the past, which changes everything about my present. It sounds good…………… but is it true?

Whatever people do or do not believe, Hope Explored offers them an opportunity to explore, to discuss the hope, peace and purpose Jesus offers.

Please come and join us to consider some of these matters over 3 evenings in the M.A. Hall, Kenneth St.  This 3 session programme will be run on 7th, 14th and 21st February.  Each session will start at 7:30pm and finish at 8:30pm.

The meetings will be held in an informal and relaxed environment and suitable for anyone with little, or no, Christian experience.

There is no need to book, just turn up and bring some friends if you can.
