The Church will be open for private prayer on Thursdays between 10.30am and 12.00 noon.

One of our past probationers, Michelle McAdoo, will be inducted into the charge of Trinity, Montrose on 10th April. According to Google Maps this journey takes about 2 hours so we would be leaving the church about 4.30pm and returning about 11pm.
There will be a sheet at the front for those wishing to go, if you are willing to take your car please put in brackets (car) beside your name with the number of seats available for you to take.
We are seeking a volunteer for the role of Grant Coordinator. We have been very successful in obtaining grants in the past couple of years receiving many thousands of pounds, but this has helped us realise just how many opportunities there are out there!
We are looking for someone who can keep an eye open for the opportunities and develop a template application form that can be adapted to individual grant opportunities. Basic IT skills required. If you think you could help with this, or would like to chat to get more information, please let the Session Clerk know. This is open to any congregational member. Please help if you can.
The craft group will meet on Thursday 27th March from 1 - 3pm in the small hall.
