We were thrilled to have Peter Bailey and his wife with us for morning worship on Sunday 14th May. Peter is soon to retire from his role as Chief Executive of Crossreach and during our service he reflected on the work of Crossreach and shared with us some personal highlights. He finished by telling us that he plans to go out in style, with an abseil from the Forth Road Bridge!! (You can sponsor him at his Justgiving page.)

We wish Peter well in all that he will do in the time ahead.

Sunday 21st may sees the annual Heart & Soul event of the Church of Scotland taking place in princes Street Gardens. Coinciding with the General Assembly of the Church, Heart & Soul celebrates all that is best about our Church – it’s life and work as that works out in every parish across the nation. Seats are still available on the bus which will depart immediately after morning worship (Sunday 21st May 2017.) Call the Church Offcie to make a booking – TEL: 01241 431135.

We’re now into that exciting period between Easter and Pentecost, during which we’ll be reflecting on the people Jesus engaged with by way of convincing them he was alive. To help us in this, our small groups will be working through the ’40 Days’ programme. If you’d like to be part of such a group, contact the church office at your first opportunity! The Office is open daily from 9am – 12noon. TEL: 01241 431135 or office@arbroathstandrews.org.uk
