Covid-19 update

In this unprecedented time of lockdown, we have suspended our physical meetings together, but we are looking at a different way of being church during these turbulent times.  We continue to share the love of God, through “virtual” worship meetings, posting regular blogs, supporting others practically and praying for each other. Please have a look at the latest newsletter, notices and our Facebook /Twitter pages for further info.

Mission Statement

"Our purpose is to honour and enjoy God, proclaim Jesus Christ as Saviour and Lord, serve our community in Jesus' name, strengthen one another in our spiritual life, and influence our world through prayer, witness, truth and grace."

Kilmore windows update

Despite the fact that there have been a few hold ups in the project to replace all the windows in Kilmore Church, we are almost there!

The delays have been partly due to covid related problems in supply of materials and the associated effect of that on contractors’ schedules. In addition, during the work, further necessary repairs were identified which had to be dealt with.

The outside work is now complete and the scaffolding was removed last week. All that is left to complete is the internal finishing work. This work will be done in the week beginning 5th April so the work will be completed by the end of that week.

Of course, this extra but necessary work has come at a price and we have a projected deficit of approximately £12000 for the financing of the project. We therefore hope to do some more fundraising in the months that lie ahead, including the relaunching of our online appeal which brought in the amazing sum of (approximately) £14000.

We do so look forward to being able to gather in Kilmore once again so that we can experience the benefits of the work done! With a great big thankyou to everyone who has helped in any way.
