Thanks to all those who dropped goods off at our Foodbank collection yesterday - 53 bags and 8 trays of food handed in and 6 trays of hand sanitiser donated.
There will be a walk on Saturday 4th December starting from Lochwinnoch Station carpark along the footpath to Castle Semple Loch, along the banks of the loch and onto the cycle track as far as the Collegiate Church. From there we pass through Parkhill Woods and up to the Johnshill viewpoint returning through Lochwinnoch to the cars. Distance is around 4.5 miles and is on tracks and pavements, no steep hills.
Meet at Kirk at 9.30 a.m. and bring a flask for a hot drink at the mid-point of the walk.

A few people have been asking how they can continue to give their offering/donate when not in church.
There are a few ways to do this:
(a) set up a standing order
(b) give online
(c) for those who give by WFO envelopes - these can be handed in to the West Halls on a Tuesday 10 -12 noon and 7-8 p.m. during the Foodbank collections. There will be a box available to deposit.
Please click on the date/title box or button on homepage (Weekly Offerings) to access the methods of giving.
While we can’t meet in the church, we are being Church more than ever before and we are grateful to everyone for their support!
