What's On?




Sun 20 May, Morning Worship at 10.30am: Pentecost.
We welcome the Rev. Sandy Strachan this morning as he leads us in worship.
There will also be an opportunity to donate to the work of Christian Aid after the service, via the basket in the vestibule, for those who missed out last week.





Further ahead:
Sun 27 May:
Morning Worship at 10.30am: Trinity Sunday. We hear from the prophet, Isaiah, about his encounter with God, and of God's call on his life. In our gospel reading, the theme of new beginnings is explored further, as we listen in to a conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus, and ponder new birth. Join us for worship.

‘Blether and Biscuits’, pt 2: 
1.30-2.30pm Abington Village Hall and then
3.00-4.00pm at Roberton Village Hall
Whether you attend church regularly, from time to time, or have never been, we’re ready to listen. Come and join us for a blether and biscuits. We’re on tour and invite you to chat about the things that matter to you and the things you feel are important to this area. This forms part of our Local Church Review process and replaces the postcard questionnaire. There’s now an online short questionnaire and we’ll have hard copies in all four halls, which can be done anonymously. We’re hoping some of these conversations will help us as we look ahead to the future.
We'd be delighted to see you.
Pick a location and time that best suits you, and see you there.
And, if you can't make it, perhaps you'd be able to fill in our wee online survey [replacing the postcard mentioned in the Easter magazine which is much more eco-friendly!]

Thanks in advance!

and, after a busy day, why not wind down with our:
6.30pm Evening Worship at Leadhills Village Hall. We continue our journey with Paul. This month we reflect on some themes from the Letter to the Galatians. Join us in this shorter and more relaxed time of worship, and stay on for tea/coffee/juice and some home baking afterwards. All welcome.

Even further ahead: 
Tues 12 June – Guild Outing to visit the churches in Carlops and West Linton. Lunch at Whitmuir Organic Place, Lamancha. Names to Mary Hamilton or Heather Watt.
