Worship from Cumbernauld Old Parish Church for Sunday 31st January

As with all our worship services, this Sunday’s service is available to all, so please feel free to share with any family or friends. Please also check out our Facebook page for all the latest news from Cumbernauld Old.

Coffee and Chat

We are resuming our Coffee and Chat sessions via Zoom and telephone. While might not be able to meet up in person, we hope these informal get-togethers will allow us some kind of relaxed social contact from the comfort of our own homes.
The plan is to meet up online or by phone on Wednesdays at 3pm, starting on 10th February. You don’t need to join us every week, feel free to drop in or out whenever it suits you.
If you would like a link to the Coffee and Chat, please let us know and we will send you the details. Everyone is very welcome and you can join either online or by telephone.

Songs of Praise Fund-raiser

The fund-raising team are organising another ‘Songs of Praise’ fund-raising event which you will be able to watch online in the near future. This time the idea is that all the hymns, etc will come from those not in the current hymn-book, Church Hymnary 4 (CH4).
So, if you have a favourite hymn from CH3, the Revised Church Hymnary, Songs of God’s People, etc. and would like us to include it in our Songs of Praise then please let us know.
We’ll publish details of the event nearer the time – at the moment, though, we’re just on the lookout for material to be included. Thanks for your help!

Coffee and Chat

Fairtrade teapotAs we are now again on a stay-at-home lockdown, we thought it would be a good idea to restart our Coffee and Chat* sessions via Zoom and telephone. We might not be able to meet up in person but we hope these informal get-togethers will allow us some kind of relaxed social contact from the comfort of our own homes.
(* or beverage of your own choice!)

This time, Anne Morrison is going to host the sessions (thanks Anne!) and the plan is to meet up online or by phone on Wednesdays at 3pm, starting on the 10th February. You don’t need to join us every week, feel free to drop in or out whenever it suits you.

If you would like a link to the Coffee and Chat, please let us know and we will send you the details. Everyone is very welcome and you can join either online or by telephone.
