Cumbernauld Old Parish Church is taking part in ‘Take A Moment To Pray‘, an initiative by Falkirk Presbytery of the Church of Scotland. The Parish Church will be open for quiet prayer and reflection on Saturday 9th December between 2.00pm and 4.00pm, with readings on the hour and half-hour. Feel free to drop in for as long or short a time as you wish.
Firstly, we’d like to say a big “thank you” to everyone who supports the local Food Bank with donations, volunteering and prayer. Secondly, we’d like to update you with what we have planned in the lead-up to Christmas – and how you can help.
Preparations are underway at the Food Bank for helping those in need in our community during what can be a particularly challenging time. The Cornerstone Christmas event will be held on Thursday 21st December at Cornerstone House in the Town Centre. It will cater for around 150 people, providing them with a festive meal, food parcel and gifts. There will also be Christmas celebration at the Cumbernauld Village Food Bank the following day, Friday 22nd December, with carols, treats and fellowship.
On Sunday 12th November there will be a short service and Act of Remembrance at the War Memorial on Baronhill in Cumbernauld Village at 10.45am. This will be followed by morning worship in the Parish Church at approximately 11.15am. Both services will be led by Rev Elspeth McKay. If you are attending worship in the Village, please note the later than usual start-time.
Morning Worship for Remembrance Sunday at the Forge Centre in Balloch will be at the usual time of 11.45am. This service will be led by Ivar Struthers.
