St Ninians and Andrews URC

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

St. Ninian's and St. Andrew's considers itself a church that is open to exploration of faith. The members hope to build on the proud history of our non-conformist forebears by being a church where honest questions receive honest answers. We are also proud to be the first Church in the area to perform same sex marriages.

We are 'the church on Chants'. We occupy a prominent position on Chanterlands Avenue - near the bridge, opposite the garage. We aim to be at the heart of the community the Avenues Community Room (ACR), along with Saint Andrew's Hall (SAH), are both well used by local groups.

 St.Ninian’s Needlecrafters

A special warm welcome to our newest members – namely Jess, Laura and Clara. They have been busy making crossstitch Christmas cards under the expert tuition of Margaret R.

After much consideration, we decided that our Christmas creations would be penguins and trees this year, so we're now busy cutting up lots of black, white and green felt. We hope you'll like them when you get yours at the service on Christmas morning!

Anybody is welcome to come on a Wednesday afternoon, even if you don't craft – we can ALL talk and the kettle doesn't take long to boil!!!

Book Club

As part of the Peter’s House project we’re going to have a ‘book club’ – we’re starting with ‘A New Kind of Christianity’ by Brian McLaren. Simon has a couple of copies of the book that are freely available to the first people who get in touch to say they’d like to take part.

We’re planning to do this on a (roughly) monthly basis, and hoping to start on Thursday, 30th of October at 7pm. – venue to be confirmed. Please contact Simon if you’d like to take part – the earliest birds get a free book. No experiencerequired: only the ability to read.
