Youth Organisations

With the young people in our area heading back to school, it is also the time for youth organisations in Cambusnethan North Church to start up again after the summer break.

Our Boys’ Brigade will be enrolling new members of all sections (i.e. different age groups) on FRIDAY 20th AUGUST, at 7pm. Boys wishing to join the BBs should come along to this session on Friday evening.

Details for the new session of our girls’ organisation (Brownies) and junior choir for boys and girls (Starchoonz) are still being finalised and will be provided here shortly. In the meantime, please CONTACT US if you’d like further information on any of our youth organisations.

On Sundays, we have two groups for our young people – starlights (for younger boys and girls) and the 11:30 Klub (for those a bit older). New members of both are always welcome.

Greenhead Moss Community Nature Park – July updates

cambusnethannorth — Wed, 11 Aug 2010 21:02:54 +0000

Just a reminder to local people who enjoy visiting Perchy Pond and Greenhead Moss Community Nature Park (which is situated very close to Cambusnethan North Church, for those who haven’t yet been to it) that there is now a very informative website run by Greenhead Moss Community Trust. Latest updates (from the end of July) highlight the presence of Roe Deer, a cuckoo, toads, newts and several bog species in flower. The website is a great resource, with the Nature Park being an important and valuable part of the local area.

Burned out? Exhausted? Tired of the constant demands of other people and your own expectations?
On Sunday 20th June in the North we will listen to a story about Elijah which reminds us we are not the only ones.. and that God still has plans for us even if we think we are failures.

A photo recently added to Cambusnethan North Church’s photography blog was a reminder of a saying of George MacLeod, founder of the Iona Community. He said:

Follow the light you have

and pray for more light
