Lord, you have come to the seashore, neither searching for the rich nor the wise, desiring only that I follow you.

Thought For The Week
YOU ARE STRONGER THAN YOU KNOW.
Sometimes we don’t know our power
until the time comes to use it.
It lies dormant within us and
emerges just when we think we can’t go on.
And when it does, we find that we had much
more power and strength than we ever thought possible.
So when you feel like giving up
and throwing in the towel,
know in your heart that your strength
is on its way to the surface.
One day you will look back at this moment
And see how strong you really were.
You are stronger than you feel
And much stronger than you know.
Message from Minister
On Sunday 28th June we took part in an uplifting live Zoom service conducted by our minister, Mairi.
Prior to the Service we had a chance to meet and chat and we were so pleased to welcome Moira Hay, Nettie Lawrie, Honor Halley and Marrion Dawson who had dialled in on their landlines. Although we couldn’t see them in person we were delighted to hear their voices and to feel we could all share in the worship together again.
Unfortunately gremlins struck John Duncan’s internet link and sadly we had to abandon his playing and singing. Gordon miraculously patched in the hymns he had sourced earlier and we were able to proceed. Maureen James read the Scriptures, Eleanor Thomas read another reflection from Spill the Beans, Sandy Marshall played and sang a rousing Come all you vagabonds and Bruce Tarbet led us in the prayer of dedication of our offerings. Managing a Zoom meeting is certainly exciting and keeps us on our toes!
You can find further instructions on Zoom and dialling in on your landline posted in the News section.
Every week more news is added to our Website. Listen to Mairi’s latest 5 minute chat
- Another Thought for the Week from Charles, our Session Clerk, kindly given to him by Moira Ramsay, Commanders Grove.
- Elsewhere on the website is posted a copy of the latest Link. Paper copies will have been delivered or posted to those who do not have electronic devices but if you know of anyone else who would like a paper copy please contact Charles.
- Mairi is busy as usual trying to keep in touch with both her church communities and serving the wider community. As she tries to help those who may be suffering from stress, loneliness, ill health and isolation in care homes and hospitals, please keep her and them in your prayers.
- Mairi’s service on Sunday was based on the Parable of the Sower. In the Gallery is photo of a lovely field of barley at Nether Braco. Scott Lambie was very fortunate that his seed fell on fertile ground and has produced a good crop!
