Prayer for Sunday
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him and he will make your paths straight.”
Proverbs 3:5,6
Dear Lord, at this time we remember young people who are sitting exams for the first time. Please help them to achieve all they aim for, and give them hope for the future and hope in you. We also pray for newly appointed councillors and ask your guidance and wisdom as they take up new roles. In Jesus’ name, amen.
If you feel that you or a loved one would benefit from prayer support feel free to complete the form on our Prayer Request page

Church Services
We are delighted that we are again allowed to open the church for worship. Numbers are no longer restricted and there is no requirement to book in advance. We will, however, still require your contact details for Test and Protect and that you wear a face mask.
Whatsmore, we can, once again, offer tea/coffee after the service at the Carswell Centre...a great chance to catch up with one another. We hope to see you there sometime soon.
We have installed new Audio Visual equipment to allow the Live Streaming of our church services. You can see our current and previous livestreams and videos on our YouTube channel. Unfortunately, the livestream is susceptible to outages, due to signal strength through the thick walls of the church. On the rare occasions where the service is lost on a Sunday morning, please wait whilst we try and re-connect. If all else fails please try again in the evening, by which time we will have uploaded a copy of the service.
For those of you who use Facebook please visit the church page regularly for additional information.
