Daffodil Tea – Saturday 23rd February, 10.30am – 1pm
These cheery first signs of spring help us look forward to lighter, warmer days – even if things outside still feel as if winter isn’t planning to leave any time soon!
Join us in the Hall for cream scones, home baking, music, Fairtrade goods, a play area for the young ones and daffodils, of course!
Everyone is welcome to drop in, browse, buy, chat, eat, drink, and stay a while between 10.30am and 1pm on Saturday 23rd February.
A Matter of Opinion – Friday 15th February, 7.30pm
The topic for this meeting in the “A Matter of Opinion” series is David Stow: ‘a sort of amateur teacher’ led by Glenda White.
The far-reaching achievements of a little-known local man: followed by discussion for those who like to discuss and the opportunity just to sit and listen for those prefer it that way.
Friday 15th February at 7.30pm – All welcome – we hope to see you there.
Home to Us All – Saturday 19th January, 10.30-14.00
Come along with family, friends and neighbours to…
A bazaar/fiesta/bonanza in the Church hall involving everyone who meets in this building, which will raise some cash for the building and various good causes but is also a great opportunity to get to know each other better, make friends and enjoy ourselves!
Browse and buy: including delicious home-baking, pre-loved books and music, interesting curiosities and toys and that wonderful stall labelled simply ‘STUFF’…
Compete: some challenges which you may have met before and some which you probably have not!
Refresh and relax: at Joyce’s wonderful tea place with a cuppa and delicious treats.
See you there!
Candlelight carols – tomorrow night 6.30pm
East Dumbartonshire Schools Concert Band join us for our annual carol service lit by candle light.
Come and sing some favourite carols – lanterns provided!
Christingle – Wednesday 12th December 6pm
Each year as we approach Christmas we invite everyone in our community to our Christingle celebration. Christingle means “Christ light”. A Christingle is used in Advent services of many churches. Our celebration is for the whole community and is suitable for all ages. It takes place in the hall.
It includes dancing by our Highland dancers, music from choirs who meet in the hall and contributions from children’s groups. There is singing by everyone, we tell the Christmas story and every child makes a Christingle. We enjoy refreshments together afterwards.
We welcome all in the community; those who are Christian and those who are not but simply want to join us in the joy of the Christmas season. Don’t miss it. Bring your friends, your neighbours or your flatmates or just come on your own because you will find friends there.
