The Rector writes.....
We live in very interesting and turbulent times. The weather is all over the place,politically we are in interesting times, nationally we are approaching 29th March and even I am not going to speculate what that will bring, and internationally there seems to be conflict and disaster around every corner. I imagine that many of us are slightly bewildered as to what should happen and what we can do about it. Almost a feeling of powerlessness and hopelessness – raising the question “What on earth can I do?"
Recently I came across this really nice saying:
Helping one person may not change the World
But it could change the World for one person.
This is a great mantra for us all. To try to help one person and one another. It may not change the world but it is small actions and voices that can help the world to change.
With my love and prayers
Prebendary Bob King
The Church is open daily. The formidable front door will yield as you turn the handle, and lights will come on as you enter, to welcome you.
There is level access for services, via the backdoor, through the gate at the left side of the Church.
St Andrew's is part of the Diocese of Edinburgh within the Scottish Episcopal Church, which is itself part of the world-wide Anglican Communion
We are committed to exploring ways in which we can serve God both within our church families and in and around our local communities. We also play a full part in our town's ecumenical 'Churches Together' groups, sharing occasional services and pieces of outreach work with the local Church of Scotland congregations, the Quakers and the Roman Catholics.
