Family Faithshare: Sunday 25th 11.15m

Only two weeks to go and it will be another Family Faithshare. So if you are part of a family with children of primary school age come along to the Church Centre to explore the theme for the day. This month we will be thinking through what it is to be a 'saint'!!

Advance notice: Our congregational pinic with games for childen will be after church (and Family Faithshare) on Sunday 22nd June. We will be going down to Lerags on Loch Feochan for a traditional Sunday School picnic with a twist: BBQ grub, a nature trail, games and everyone welcome. More details to come. We will need names to help us cater.

Ray, Baroness Michie of Gallanach

Funeral Service: Saturday 10th May, 11.00am

Ray, a member of our congregation, and former MP for Argyll, died on Wednesday. Our prayers go out to all who knew and loved this wonderful woman. Many, many people will gather for her funeral service. Our hope is that this service will provide a fitting tribute to an exceptional Scot, Gael, politician and liberal.

new life - great!

New life bubbling up just keeps bearing testimony to God's activity in our congregation. On Sunday 4th four new members will be confirmed in faith. May God's blessing be upon them.

And then over the next two weeks we will have seven!! children baptised into the faith. Wonderful!

God is good.

If you would like to see some of us in person check into the CWW National Gathering at Ingliston. We will have a tent there telling something of our story. Just look for Kilmore and Oban, 2 Antioch Road.
