Services at 9.30 am and 10.30 am (also live-streamed). The passage is Colossians 3:12-18 and the theme, Modelling godly character.

2)   Gift Day

The North Berwick Harbour Trust has a vision to maintain and develop the harbour. As part of that it wants to improve access from the Low Quay to the West Beach.  Beach wheelchairs, families with buggies, and people pushing dinghy trailers will all benefit from a better ramp. The total cost of the work will be £30,000. Through Gift Day we intend to contribute £5,000.

Our Church began at the harbour, ministering to the visitors passing through. This contribution continues that thread and is an expression of our commitment to the wellbeing of the town and all who visit it.

Your contribution towards this and all the other projects is invited.  Bring cash/cheque to church and mark ‘Gift Day’ on the envelope. Give digitally to Account no. 00228845, Sort Code  80-17-95 Account Name, St Andrew Blackadder Church.

Thank you to everyone who has already given.

It needs to be submitted by July 18th.  As many hymns as possible will be included.
