We are getting ready for the first of our Christmas Community events this weekend with our Christmas Community Party, and our Project Christmas Stocking with Social Flock. Here's some reminders of the details and a BIG INVITATION to get involved and come along!!!
Christmas Community Party
This Sunday afternoon we're hosting an outside event at the flats behind the Church from 3-5pm. We'll be serving drinks and cookies, setting up a photo booth for "Christmas Pics for Pooches", playing some games, and singing carols with our neighbours. It would be great to have a crowd together and if you love a good sing, then make sure you're around at 4pm.
Project Christmas Stocking with Social Flock
Sunday 12th December (this Sunday) is our deadline day for gathering presents to give to children in Perth, which will be distributed through Social Flock.
It is our hope that as a church family we can give Christmas gifts to 100 children whose families could use some extra love this Christmas. Through Project Christmas Stocking, children who have required a Winter Warmer pack (full of cold-weather clothing) from Social Flock will get a much-appreciated Christmas present. As a wee reminder, there are three ways which anyone who would like to get involved in Project Christmas Stocking can do so:
- Buy a gift for a child, up to the value of £20, and bring it to church (unwrapped please!) on either the 5th or 12th of December. There is a decorated box in the sanctuary where these can be placed.
- Purchase a gift from the Amazon Wishlist at https://cutt.ly/
This will be sent directly to the team coordinating our efforts, no further effort required!
- Hand cash to either Karen McCleary, Louise Skipper and Jenni Keenan, or any of the pastoral staff.
- Donate online by visiting our giving page https://
Finally, we will be having a Present-Wrapping Party at church on the evening of Friday 17th December - please save the date!
Here's some other reminders of what's on this week....
Young Adults Connect Event
This Thursday, 9th December from 6.30pm – 8pm we will be holding a get together at Blend Coffee Lounge with Pizza, Coffee and Cakes for Young Adults (Ages 18-30s). It’s a chance for new and existing members of the church to get together and connect with one another. No sign up – Just turn up! Any questions please speak to Pastor Chris.
December Prayer Meetings – 8th & 15th December @ Blend
Our prayer meetings in December will look a bit different, but we wanted to create a space for a more informal gathering, fellowship and time of prayer together. We will meet at Blend Coffee Lounge on Wednesday 8th and 15th December at the earlier time of 6.30pm – 8pm. We hope you can come out and join this relaxed evening on these dark winter nights!
