The monthly draw for the 200 Club will take place in the hall.
Diary Dates:
6th August: Hall Big Clean: Volunteers welcome to come along and give the hall at 7.00 p.m. a thorough clean up before the new season starts. A lot of stuff has been gathering in various areas of the Hall and cluttered things up. There is also the aftermath of various pieces of work that have been done. If any of it belongs to you and you want it kept please box it up with your name on it otherwise it will be thrown out. Please remember no food should ever be left unboxed since it attracts mice etc.
A list is at the back of the Church on which you can sign up to help. The more volunteers there are the quicker it will take.
Holidays: If you are going away, I hope you have a safe journey and come back refreshed and relaxed. If you are staying at home, I hope you find some time to relax and take a break from your usual routine.
If you are a visitor, you are welcome to our Parish, our city and our country.
A recipe to end hunger: SCIAF is looking for tasty recipes for a 50th anniversary cook book which will celebrate food from Scotland and around the world. The proceeds from the sale of the book will help people in poverty to free themselves from hunger. They’d also love to hear about your memories of SCIAF over the years. Please send your recipes and/or memories to Elaine Coakley at ecoakley@sciaf.org.uk by this weekend. You can also post them to SCIAF, 19 Park Circus, Glasgow G3 6BE.
Do you know of anyone interested in becoming a member of the Church ? It may be someone from your own family, a friend, a neighbour, a work colleague. There will be a meeting in August at which more information will be available about the process called the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults or R.C.I.A. for short. . Please watch out for the exact date.
