Jesus wept John 11: 1-45. Welcome to our time of reflection for Sunday 29th of March. Today's reflection is on the death of Lazarus, not one that I chose but maybe one worthy of looking at, at this time. I know many of you have been struggling so let’s start with a time of prayer for all of those who feel life is overwhelming them just now. Prayer... Heavenly Father, It is hard to remember a time when we have lived in such difficult circumstances. The uncertainty, the constan

Many years ago, in what seems like another life, I was on my way home from a party one night - I say one night, but I really mean one morning, it was a pretty good party. I was walking home just as the dawn was starting to break, just as the sun was coming up, you know, the time when it’s not quite light and it’s not quite dark. Anyway, as I walked I caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of my eye. I saw something that my brain just couldn’t make sense of. It l

A Simple Conversation

A Simple Conversation

A simple conversation John 4: 1-42 15/3/20 It is a simple conversation. I know it may not seem all that simple to you. But to any minister, or leader of a church, this is a conversation we have had many times. Imagine you are a minister.

Prayer from Gil Harvie

Heavenly Father, we are glad to have this opportunity to worship you, and we are thankful that we can do so in safety and without fear. We have come to worship and praise you, because you are the one true god, the creator and sustainer of all things. You have created everything, from the vastness of the Universe with its distances that most of us find hard to imagine, down to the tiniest of the sub-atomic particles. When we try to think about all that you have done, we real

Into a new land (Evening Communion)

Into a new land (Evening Communion) Genesis 11: 31-32 & 12: 1-10 8/3/20 (The service starts off with asking who Abraham’s father was) I think it is fair to review our faith every now and again. I think it is fair to reflect on what we do and why we do it. If we don’t do that deliberately then every now and again that process of reflection will be forced on us, usually in an uncomfortable way. For instance we get a serious illness and that forces us to think about what we have

A Celebration of Service

A Celebration of Service

A Celebration of Service Matthew 4: 1-11. 1/3/20 (During this service many members of the choir and eldership were awarded with long service certificates) Months and months and months ago people were coming to myself and Lesley and saying, ‘Did you know that Margaret had been playing the organ for churches in Alva for nearly 50 years. Shouldn't we be celebrating that?’ And we agreed. And we then forgot about it because it was something to be doing in the future. And then they
