Dear Friends of Burnside,
This week we join with our sisters and brothers in Portstewart Presbyterian Church for the Joint Radio Ulster Broadcast Service.
Please note the earlier time of 9:00am and please make sure you are seated by 8:30am in Portstewart Presbyterian.
Please bring your FWO envelopes to Burnside next Sunday, while this week there will be a special offering for the United Appeal of PCI.
We look forward to worshipping with you!
This Sunday we will be commenting on the Safeguarding Failures in the Presbyterian Church and praying for those who have not been listened to. So far very few details have been shared and all of this has come as a shock. The latest statements by the Presbyterian Church and details of helplines are available at https://presbyterianireland.org/news
Livestream Of Service
Although the service will be broadcast on Radio Ulster you can also watch on the Portstewart Presbyterian Livestream
