Minister's Meditation 09.08.20

On Tuesday 11 August a formal Service of Linkage between Howwood and St. Paul's will take place. This will be held in St. Paul's Church, but due to the Covid-19 regulations it will not be possible for members of either congregation to attend. The Session Clerk and Treasurer of each congregation will attend to represent all church members.

It is planned that the service will be live streamed from St. Paul's at 7pm on Tuesday 11 August and anyone who wishes can log on at that time to watch the service. The service will last for 15-20 minutes and details of how to log on will be posted here on the morning of 11 August.

The reflection for this week (9/8) is the last one which will be posted in written form. On Sunday mornings from 16 August Alistair will be presenting his sermon in a live video stream from St. Paul's Church at 11am. The video will still be loaded to this website and the phone in service will continue to be available.

Alistair's reflections for this week can be accessed in the usual manner below:-

The phone line option is also available by calling 01505 805533.

Note from Treasurer

Over the last few weeks several people have contacted me asking me how they might continue to give their offerings to the church while services are on hold.

We have no means of dealing with offering envelopes, but there are two options available for anyone who wishes to give a donation at present:-

1. Payment can be made direct to the church bank account via online banking. This could be for a single donation or to make regular payments.

2. A bank Standing Order can be set up - this can be as regular as is wanted, and can be cancelled at any time.

If anyone wishes to use either of these methods then please contact me and I will provide bank account details, or send out a Standing Order form as required.

I can be contacted on my usual email address or by phone - and if anyone does not have these to hand then please use the "contact us" page of this website and I will get back to you.

Thank you

Lillian Taylor

Treasurer
