Lent Studies @ Hillhead Baptist Church

Lent Studies - a five part series entitled 'Life Calling' which explores the idea of vocation - are being organised by Hillhead Baptists and are open to anyone from the Parish Group or West End ACTS.

For those who wish to join us, we are going to watch the film on which the studies are based Saturday 20th February starting at 7p.m. in the Tryst (legally I cannot publish the name of the film here, but it is about a boy who dreams of becoming a dancer...) and any or all are welcome to join us. Free pop corn provided!!

Studies will take place on Monday evenings at 7:30 either at Hillhead Baptist Church or a nearby home - please contact Catriona Gorton for more details.

The Miracle of Christmas - Thank You!

Thank you to everyone who came and shared in the Advent Prayers & Lunches at Hillhead Baptist Church. I estimate that around 25-30 different folk came along, and there were never less than a dozen of us on any one day.

Thank you for donations for Christian Aid. We raised just over £145, which will be passed on via West End ACTS early in 2010.

United Service: January 3rd 2010

The first Sunday morning service of the new year will be held in Wellington Church at 11.00 a.m. on January 3rd.

This year's service of Grieving and Gratitude will take place on Sunday Nov. 1st in St John's Renfield Parish Church, Beaconsfield Road.

It gives us an opportunity to give thanks and to express our sense of loss in a gentle act of worship. 

All who have experienced the loss or bereavement are warmly invited.

Church and Ministry News!

Good News!

Two of our participant churches are in process of welcoming new ministers.

Rev Catriona Gorton was inducted to Hillhead Baptist Church on Sunday October 3rd.

Rev Fiona Lillie preached as sole nominee at St John's Renfield on Sunday October 4th.

After two long 'vacancies' (sic) it is gratifying to know that new ministries are beginning.

Exciting times....
