News, info, looking ahead... wk beg 18 Feb


CHURCH NEWS/ What's on:

Church quiz: At the request of the Social Committee, Isobel T and a friend have devised
a devious, but fun quiz sheet. Get the grey matter working as you try to decode clues
and find the answers to some old familiar nursery rhymes and games.
Each sheet is £1 - and being sold by members of the Social Committee.
Winning entry will receive £10 - and all money raised goes towards church funds.
[in the case of several correct entries, these will be put in a bucket and one drawn 'blind']

Wed 20... keep an eye out for an online mid-week reflection based on John 6 and bread...

Thurs 21, 7pm: Kirk Session meets in the church hall

Sun 24 Feb, 6.30pm: Evening Worship at Leadhills Village Hall.
Join us as we gather for a more informal time of worship.
This week, we welcome Peter Crockett who will be leading our time together.
After worship stay on for a chat over tea/coffee/juice and baking. All welcome.

Sun 3 March, 10.30am: Communion. Join us as we gather together
to share in the bread and wine of the Lord’s Supper.
No matter where you are on your spiritual journey,
it is the Lord’s table and he welcomes all to share.

Also, beginning 3rd March - Food Bank Donations Box:
Over the Sundays of March, we will have a box in which to leave
dry/ tinned goods/ basic hygiene products for the Clydesdale Food Bank.
If you have items to donate, that would be excellent:
we shall make sure they get to their destination!

Parish magazine – Easter edition: Contributions/ articles - 
With 9 weeks to go till Easter, our editor, Dee is looking for articles for our Easter magazine.
If you have a story you wish to share - a past Easter that sticks in your mind,
or what your favourite Easter hymn/ poem is and why, or anything else on an Easter theme,
you have two weeks until it needs to be submitted to Dee. The deadline is 3 March.

Faith and film - ‘Les Miserables’: 5 week discussion group -
this year’s Lent study features ‘Les Miserables’ as our discussion starter. We’ll be showing the film in the manse at 3.30pm Sun 3 March, and thereafter, each week through Lent, there’ll be a discussion group looking at themes from the film that tie in with faith.
A book ‘Another story must begin’ by Jonathan Meyer [£5.99], will be used to help our discussion. Nikki is happy to order this for you if you’re interested.
Please let her know if you’d like to join the group/ would like a copy of the book by Sun 24 Feb. Time and place tbd, but 3.30pm Sundays at the manse is one available option.
