The Church Invitation Leaflets:- We are doing well with the delivery of our Church Invitation Flyers to homes in our parish. There are still some leaflets to be delivered and these are in the hall. If you can help to deliver please uplift and mark the street names as done on the area delivery list. Thank you.
Genesis – Help Wanted : Genesis Youth Club is in need of a volunteer who will have an interest
in working with energetic young people from the age of 10 to 15, who can be quite lively.
Previous experience would be beneficial though not essential. It’s more important that you are enthusiastic. For more information or to put your name forward please contact:-
Janette McDonald - 07876 256 232 or Graham Preston - 07900 691 339
Service Recordings: This is a reminder to all Elders and the whole congregation to say we provide a recording of the Sunday services to those members of our Church Family who are housebound and have no internet access to view the weekly services via our website. If you know of anyone who would be interested in receiving an MP3 player and a memory stick with the recording of the service to be made available to them could you please let Fiona Sandeman know.
This is a really important outreach to members of our church family who are no longer able to attend Sunday morning worship. We have plenty of MP3 players so please do get in touch if you or anyone you know would like this service and we will arrange to get the weekly recorded service to you.
Keeping you informed : Following a recent meeting of the Business Committee of Larkhall New we had a discussion about how we could improve our communication with you, our Church Family, and keep you abreast of what goes on in Larkhall New - both at Chalmers & St Machan’s - on a weekly basis.
For those who have Internet Access you will hopefully have noticed over the last few weeks an email from me each Sunday or Monday providing a list of the intimations for the week ahead as is found in the Sunday Church order of service leaflet. We hope this will be of interest to those who are, for whatever reason, unable to attend Church regularly or who happen to miss a week or two due to illness, holidays or family commitments. For those who manage to Church and have already seen the intimations, this just serves as an additional update. Naturally, I have only been able to send this out to those whose email address I have. If you are “on line” and are currently not receiving my weekly email and would like to do so then please let me have a note of your email address and I will be happy to include you. I can be contacted at fturn48880@aol.com or speak to me at Church. Linda
