If you’re new to the Parish or just visiting us, this is how a normal Sunday works (for a typical service).
From 10.30am, we will be glad to welcome you and hand out the Notices, and order of service for the day.
Please sit anywhere in the church, you will be warmly welcomed.
Our services normally begin at 11am, with the notices and then a welcome from the minister.
There is a good blend of both traditional and modern elements in our worship. We sing hymns modern and old, accompanied by our organist.
We read from the New International Version of the Bible and the sermons are normally based on the passages we have been reading from. We make good use of modern technology within The Church of Scotland’s pattern of worship.
clubChildren and young people normally leave for sunday school after around twenty minutes. Creche facilities are always available to allow parents with young children to attend the service.
A collection is normally taken towards the end of the service. During the collection, the minster and congregation are seated. When the Minister stands to receive the offering plates.
After the blessing, we sing The Amen and stand until the Bible is taken from the pulpit and leaves the sanctuary
Everyone is welcome to stay after the service and enjoy a cup of tea or coffee and a biscuit. Sometimes we even have cake!
Communion services are usually held on the second Sunday in March, June, September and December with informal communion services at other times during the year.
