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.

If you managed to get to church on Easter Sunday then we hope you enjoyed your non-fattening Easter egg! The others were put on the fence on the Wednesday before and it didn't rain on us – although it was very windy!! The Easter Blessings from St. Ninian's & St. Andrew's will now have gone to approximately 100 people in the community

Ladies Circle

 Monday 12 th May at 7.30pm. “Hidden Jewel in the middle of nowhere” Steve Bowen Jon Steel Please Note:- You will notice we only have one meeting in May, this being due to May Day and Whitsuntide falling on one of our Monday evenings. I am sorry about this but there will be an extra meeting in June. Thankyou everyone for all the support you give me during the year. I hope you will all continue to come as I have booked some very interesting speakers. Hope you all had a good Easter. Hazel Hoggard

Contemplative Prayer Group 

The SNSA contemplative prayer group will take a short break after Easter and restart on Tuesday 6th May, 7-8pm. Everyone is welcome to join us for the hour whether you want to explore your own prayer life or just make a bit of space in a busy week. We tend to focus on silence, reflection and Bible readings rather than praying 'out loud’ as we prepare to celebrate Pentecost and the life of the Holy Spirit in the Church. If you are interested, please get in touch with Jon Steel, or just turn up anytime. jon2000smiles@gmail.com.’
