Christian Aid – Plant Sale & Strawberry Tea

There was a great turnout for our annual Plant Sale & Strawberry Tea in support of Christian Aid. It was a huge success as usual. Thanks to everyone who came along and bought plants and then enjoyed a freshly baked scone with cream and strawberries.  Special thanks to Mandy and her team who do an amazing job each year in organising all our Christian Aid activities.

Sunday Club Butterfly Release Brings Joy to the Church Gardens

Our Sunday Club children celebrated one of the most looked forward to events in their calendar this week – the annual butterfly release.
 
Over the past few weeks, the children have carefully looked after their caterpillars, watching them grow, form their chrysalises, and finally emerge as beautiful butterflies.
 
On Sunday, the group gathered in the church gardens for the special release. With lots of smiles and excitement, the children opened the habitats and watched the butterflies take their first fluttering steps into the wild. Some lingered on hands before taking flight, giving the children a magical close up moment they’ll remember for a long time.
 
This annual tradition continues to be a lovely reminder of growth, care, and the beauty of creation, and a highlight of the Sunday Club year.

Lodging House Mission & East Renfrewshire Foodbank

The collections for East Renfrewshire Foodbank and The Lodging House Mission will be on Sunday 7th June at church and on Wednesday 10th June in the church hall between 10-11am.
