Shoebox Appeal 2020 - Oct 2020
We are running our Shoebox Appeal in partnership with Blythswood Care. Information leaflets can be found at http://www.blythswood.org At present we do not have a collection date but it is usually the first week in November. A collection point and time for receiving boxes will be published when available or you can drop them off anytime in Finzean - please contact us for details. This year they are accepting drawstring bags if you do not have a shoebox (no plastic bags please). A checklist of what to include in your shoebox is here but a handwritten piece of paper with details of items in your shoebox would suffice. Thank you for supporting this charity.
A message from our Minister - March 2020
Dear Friends,
Worship is now suspended in all Church of Scotland congregations because of precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19, so there will be no Sunday Service at Birse and Feughside Parish Church until further notice.
However, the Church is a people, so church doesn’t stop happening just because we are not able to be together in one place. We can still worship, and have fellowship with one another, and serve one another and our community in practical ways, it will just look different.
We will post audio recordings of prayers, reflections and hymns, in place of our services, with downloadable words, in the Audio sectiion of this website. We know it's not quite the fellowship of our service but hopefully we will be back to normal before too long. Unfortunately, you will have to make your own tea or coffee afterwards!
Click here to hear the recordings and see the words for the hymns.
We have started a Facebook Group. We will use this to provide frequent updates and fellowship. Please email andrew.douglas@uglifruits.co.uk to join. If you don't have a FB account, it is easy to set one up, visit here. If you do not have access to the internet, there is a regular Sunday Worship Service on Radio 4 at 8.10am.
