Beside The Burn
This week we begin a brand new series for the summer, “Meals With Jesus!”.
One of the things that we have all missed during the Covid Restrictions is being able to eat together with friends and family. These are always such important occasions when we catch up, encourage one another and learn about each other’s lives. In church we have missed sharing those cups of tea and catching up, so this summer we are going to eat a number of meals with Jesus, beginning this week at the Home of Simon The Pharisee.
Each day we look in a little more detail at the passage from Sunday - Luke 7:36-50

Holiday Photos From Being Back Home
If you are on Facebook try the link below, which should take you to some photos that Deirdre took when we returned home at the weekend. We took a trip to the new viewpoint at Magheracross. On Saturday the view was stunning but on Sunday the Sea Mist had descended, although the car park was still in bright sunshine. It did provide a beautiful display of a Fogbow.
