Summary report from meeting of Kirk Session on Thursday 20^th November.

The Session met on Thursday and among the items discussed were the following suggestions from members of the congregation.

Sharing of roles & responsibilities.

There are a number of ‘duties’ which are outlined below that are required to be fulfilled each Sunday to ensure services run smoothly.  We hope as many people as possible will volunteer for a role/roles and that these could be shared better among the congregation using a rota system.

Welcome at door                                                                   Collection

Opening/closing of church                                                     Hymn boards

Presbytery newsletter                                                            announcement sheet

Children’s church (July/August)                                              Sunday school leader

Readings                                                                              Church Magazines

Crèche                                                                                 Flowers

What can you take on?  All age groups are encouraged to participate.  Have you any other thoughts/ideas on how our worship experience can be enhanced and that we ensure we are a welcoming and inviting church?

Songs of Praise evening–Your favourite hymns

It has been suggested that we have a praise evening (Early Spring) consisting of congregational singing, group singing, solo/duet or an instrumental of the congregation’s most popular favourite hymns.  You will be invited to submit your favourite hymn in the New Year.  It is planned to have a retiring offering towards a charity of the congregation’s choosing.

Please let us know your suggestions, comments or ideas.  Your feedback will be greatly appreciated.
