The Kiltwalk took place on Sunday 28th April.


Our regular stalwarts, Diane Walker and Jim Stewart, once again walked in support of Christian Aid.


Thank you to all who have already donated. If you'd like to support their efforts the links to their JustGiving pages are:-

I am sure they were pleased to get a drier day than last year!


Christian Aid Week  12th to 18th May

As in recent years, the churches of Bearsden will be distributing flyers round their parishes with details on them of how to give online during Christian Aid Week.

A Bearsden Churches Christian Aid JustGiving page has been set up and the link is:

https://www.justgiving.com/page/bearsdenchristianaidweek2024


If it suits you better, we are aiming to have Christian Aid Week envelopes available at church, although they would need to be brought back to the church as the 'house to house' round is a leaflet drop without a collection side.


Coffee concertCoffee Concert Saturday May 18th

Our season of Saturday Coffee Concerts finishes on Saturday May 18th with a special concert to be given by students from the Royal Conservatoire Scotland proceeds in aid of Christian Aid.

As before, the students from the Conservatoire will perform a wide range of arias and ensembles from your favourite operas – “An Hour of Opera Pops”. It is always such a pleasure to hear young, talented artists at the very start of their careers. In addition, it will be a fitting culmination of our fundraising for Christian Aid Week 2024 as all the proceeds from the concert will go to Christian Aid.

Fresh coffee and delicious home baking will be served beforehand from 10.45 am in the small hall with the concert in the church at 11.30 am. Tickets priced £12 will be available at the door – cash only please.

We look forward to seeing you then – please join us if you can.

We would like to thank all the folk who have helped with these concerts in any way, especially the bakers whose donations have supplied the audience with such a variety of delicious dainties. We hear quite a few compliments from members of the audience regarding the tasty goodies and the quality coffee served at these concerts.

Thank you also, to all those who have attended any of the concerts. Audience numbers have been good, with a lot of regulars for whom the concerts seem to be a pleasant social outing - just as we would wish. We have been able to transfer £1,000 to the church funds, which is much appreciated.

The first concert of the next season is on Saturday September 21st, programme to be arranged.
