SOUP AND SANDWICH FUNDRAISING LUNCH: This Sunday, 22nd MARCH – Straight after the morning service, in Kyleakin Church Hall. This is to raise funds for the Uganda trip in the Summer. Timmy is taking a group of young people (2 from Kyleakin Church) on a trip to Uganda where they will be helping in a building project. We have enough soup, but if you can bring sandwiches, please let Janette know: janette.timmy@gmail.com – 07415112820
But most importantly, please join us. Everyone welcome!
24 PRAYER FOR PEACE: We’re going to do the 24 prayer for peace again as we did last year during Lent. I think this is needed more than ever and especially for the Holy Land which has been driven off front page news by the Iranian Conflict. We have a link with a Christian group in Bethlehem and the situation in Gaza and the West Bank has seriously deteriorated since the Iran conflict began. As last year, most church denominations across the Island and Lochalsh have agreed to take part again.
Hopefully people will be happy to join this ecumenical initiative again. If so, can parishioners add their name to the sheet in each church, at a time that suits them. It will be the same as last time with 20 minute segments between Midnight Fri 27th and Midnight Sat 28th March. It doesn’t matter if we have multiple people praying at the same time. People can pray for several segments if they so wish.
