Communion
The sacrament of the Lord’s Supper will be dispensed, God willing, in the congregation at the morning service next Sunday 4th December. There will be a pre-communion service on Saturday evening (3rd), at 7.00pm (not 7.30!), followed by a meeting of the Kirk Session.
A congregational fellowship will be held in the hall after the service on Sunday evening. Scott Macleod will interview Calum Murdo.
The practical arrangements for the Lord’s Supper will be the same as applied to the most recent occasions of communion.
Anyone who wishes to take communion for the first time is invited to meet with the Session on Saturday evening, accompanied by a friend if they wish.
The Session will also be delighted to welcome anyone who wishes to join the communicant membership by a certificate from another congregation.
Please contact either of the ministers if you wish to ask about, or discuss, anything in advance of the communion services.
Our prayer is that God will encourage in advance all who wish to remember the Lord’s death and that he will bless both word and sacrament to us once again.
