Volunteers needed! Where could you help? Main Contacts below.
Last year, as a congregation, we agreed to work towards repaying over the next few years the amount we borrowed from the Legacy Fund. The amount to be repaid stands at about £20,000. This Summer Sale will be a major fund-raising event towards that aim, so please do support it.
The plan is to have:
A Flower festival in the Church “Bible Stories and Sayings” (10-4) – Refreshments in church after 1pm
Coffees served in the Drymen Hall from 10-1pm; Soup/bacon rolls for sale 12-1
Stalls and activities in the Drymen and Glenburn Halls; Many activities outside (wp!)
Lots of activities for young people/children
Tickets £2.50 incl refreshments. Congregation to receive 6 each to sell. Ticket raffle prizes.
