Bring gloves and tools for your own use if you have them. There are a few spare trowels and forks available. Further details contact Anne aomacl@tighgorm.scot 01471 822 501

 

SPRING NEWSLETTER: Those on email should have received the Spring Newsletter, and there are printed copies in the churches for those who can’t see the newsletter on line. And huge thanks to Alison for another good read!

 

HOLIDAY BIBLE CLUB: We are looking towards our Holiday Bible Club in the summer. The dates are 4th-6th August. We are hoping to continue with a 3-day event again this year which would be longer days but less of them!!

The club needs at least 8 volunteers to run, although more would be great, so even if you can spare just one day to help, that would be amazing. Please let us know if you would like to be part of this year’s team, or help in any way at: janette.timmy@gmail.com

6pm: JOINT THANKSGIVING SERVICE in Broadford Church

 

COMMUNION: (SUNDAY 4th MAY in ELGOL Village Hall): Communion is open to all who love Jesus as their Lord.  While Church membership used to be the route to taking communion, many churches now recognise that the sacrament of communion is wholly personal, and should take place between you and God. You will not be asked to stand before Session before you can take communion.  As a Session, however, we are keen to support you if you would like to chat about it - especially if you are planning to take it for the first time; we can pray about it or find resources that could support you as you take another step in your faith. Please feel free to contact one of your elders at any point. 

There is no record of who does and who does not take communion - only a record of who is a member of the Church. They are not the same thing and we will be developing some new information around Church membership in due course (the national Church of Scotland is currently reviewing this). 

We hope you will join us in Elgol next Sunday, and if it is your first time taking communion, our prayer is that you will be blessed in that special moment between you and God, and that any one of the elders would be only too glad to chat with you privately about it. 

 

HOME COMMUNION: If you or someone you know is house-bound and would like the minister to give communion at home, please let the minister or one of the elders know.
