ORGANISATIONS AND ACTIVITIES WITHIN OUR PARISH

The Kirk Session


The Kirk Session is made up of Elders who are responsible for the admission and oversight of members of the Congregation, and for the due and proper celebration of the Sacraments. It is also responsible for the education of our younger members through the Sunday School and Church youth organisations.

Elders and Minister together have a distinctive ministry in the Church of encouraging and enabling members to fulfil their calling as Christians.

Resurrection Cross

On Palm Sunday there was a barren, bare and lifeless cross in the vestibule of the church. On Easter Sunday many of us brought one or two flowers each and added them to the cross which transformed it into a Resurrection Cross, bursting with life to reflect the glory of the Resurrection. Through this we were all able to give thanks to God for what happened at Easter. Death was defeated and the gates of heaven opened.
