Dear Friends
As if in the blink of an eye, were are finding ourselves at the end of 2023… I hope that you had a special Christmas, remembering that Jesus was sent to earth to bring us light.
And it’s my prayer that in 2024, we will all be guided by this light, with every step we take.
May God bless you in the new year.
Nanda
Congratulations Nanda!
On 3rd December, our congregations marked a very special anniversary for our minister, Nanda, who was ordained into the ministry twenty five years earlier in South Africa.
It was an even busier morning than usual for her as the day was made even more special with the ordination of elders into both congregations before Communion, and her family turned up after her second service to join in a celebration - and cake!!
As our congregations take on an agreed new organisational structure to undertake the mission and business in our charge, we welcome new Session Clerks to both congregations.
Following the death of Stewart MacRae, Alison McNaught has been appointed Session Clerk at West Kirk and, after many years of service in the role, Marian Kinsman has retired and Tom Griffin has been appointed at Polbeth Harwood.
Along with our congratulations to both, we offer them our wholehearted support in the new challenges ahead and wish them every blessing.
