Know your church – Have you ever wondered what words like ‘Reformation’ or ‘Presbyterian’ mean? Or maybe you wonder why we even go to church on a Sunday or why church membership is important. Well we want to try and answer these, and other questions you may have about church and Christianity. We plan a series of meetings on Sunday afternoons starting on Sunday the 16th of March. Possible future dates are: 30th March, 18th May and the 15th June. There is a sign-up sheet at the door if you may be interested.
