Church Membership
The church is always keen to welcome new members. If anyone is interested in becoming a member of the church, please could you let Elspeth know and we can have a chat about it.
Easter Egg Appeal
Once again, the amazing generosity of the congregation was in evidence on Palm Sunday when we held our Easter Egg appeal. A large was filled with an extraordinary array of eggs in all shapes and sizes to be distributed through the food bank. Thank you for all your kindness and continuing support towards others.
Thank you for the 'Smarties' Collection
A huge thank you to everyone who has already filled and returned their 'Smarties' tubes for the Cumbernauld Old Smart Savers Fundraiser which has already raised over £200. A collection box is in the vestibule - you can’t miss it it’s covered in a Smarties paper. Some tubes of Smarties are in there too for anyone wishing to enjoy a few more sweets and afterwards fill the empty tube.
Church Fete
Our annual Church Fete is taking place in the manse gardens on Saturday 11th May from 1pm – 3 pm. Tickets cost £3 and include tea/coffee and creamed scone with jam. Children’s entry is free. Put the date in your diaries and watch this space for further information.
Food Bank
Please accept our grateful thanks for all your support throughout the year. A significant rise in the number of households relying on us means your contributions are more important than ever. Anyone wishing to donate to our food bank is invited to donate at the church. Please speak to Sandra Graham for more information.
Baby Bank
Our church supports Cumbernauld & Kilsyth Baby Bank, and there is a box in the vestibule for donations.
The Baby Bank is currently in need of baby items, hand knits, and clothes & footwear for boys & girls up to age 10. Brand new socks and underwear would be appreciated too. All items should be in good condition and freshly laundered as sometimes need to be given out at short notice. Thank you!
