Blythswood Care’s Ukraine Emergency Appeal
Congregations and individuals throughout the Free Church are encouraged to contribute towards the Ukraine Emergency Appeal through Blythswood Care.
Free Church Moderator, Neil MacMillan, said: “We want to do all we can to help the people in Ukraine and those who are refugees; hundreds of thousands of them across Europe.
“We are partnering with Blythswood Care, so if you want to give financially to help in Ukraine, please send money individually or as a congregation to Blythswood who want to raise £100,000 to help with the refugee crisis.”
He added: “Blythswood have a long track record of working in Eastern and Central Europe and with many trusted partners who are working with refugees in Romania, Moldova and Hungary. So please, give as much as you can, give generously, give now and do all we can to help the people of Ukraine.”

Communion Details
As a result of the Covid situation we have had to introduce a number of changes relating to the communion, as set out in the points below.
- As at present in our services, we will leave an empty pew at the communion table between those occupied and, except for family groups, we will ensure adequate space between communicants in each occupied pew.
- The bread and the wine will be on the communion table from the beginning of the service, rather than after a “fencing” of the table as previously.
- We will be using individual cups for the communion wine and the bread will be distributed to communicants in a way that ensures each individual communicant alone will have hand contact with the piece of bread they will use.
- Immediately before the bread and wine are dispensed, the minister will specify how these will be distributed by the elders and received by communicants, and how the empty cups will be collected.
We rejoice in this renewed opportunity to remember the Lord’s death in the Supper, thanks be to God! May He bless us through word and sacrament to His praise and glory.
