WEEKLY GIVING ENVELOPES
The Kirk Session agreed to stop purchasing the branded weekly giving envelopes, due to the costs involved for the small number now being issued, and to replace them with regular envelopes.
Most of you are now giving via the church Bank Account which is by far the simplest and most cost-effective way to give. You don't need to be a Gift Aider to give via the bank. If you would like to continue with the envelopes, we will provide bundles of plain envelopes in due course. If you would prefer to set up a standing order, please use the church's bank details (see below) and either inform one of the elders or email our Treasurer Lesley Taylor, on lesleyt3635@gmail.com to let her know. Existing envelopes will be valid until June 2027.
If you are not a Gift Aider but think you should be, ask Lesley to send you the form (also available on our website www.sschurch.co.uk/giving).
Every penny helps with the running of the churches and with the wider mission work of Strath and Sleat. Thank you for all you give.
Bank account name: Strath & Sleat Church of Scotland

On Sat 3rd October we are having a special mass at St Maolrubha’s to celebrate the 800th anniversary of St Francis’ death. It will start at 5.30pm with the Liturgy of The Transitus which narrates the passage of St Francis from this world.

COMMUNION: 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.
We hope you will join us at our next Communion Service in Kilmore Church on 20th September 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.
N.B: The communion bread is always gluten-free and the wine is alcohol-free.
