WHO ARE WE? • We are married, not married, single, separated, divorced and remarried. • We are different generations of brothers, sisters, adults and children. • We are all genders and sexualities, lifestyles and experiences and a few prejudices too. • We are people very new to the church and many who have been here longer than they care to remember. • We are folks who know little about the Bible and those who know quite a bit about it. • We are Sunday morning only members and those who come to everything. • We are beginners on the journey of faith along with those who have travelled quite a distance. • We are people looking for something BIGGER in life. • We are a mix of explorers and traditionalists • We are people who want to be together: caring accepting and loving each other. But most of all... people who want to be together: caring, accepting and loving each other.

Inside

Church Interior - Fly Through (Don't make yourself dizzy)
A wee panorama of the inside of our kirk when empty. Shhhh...You'll waken the church mouse! (and please close the door behind you in case it gets out) We know it's not about the building but it is very clever how you can do this. Many thanks to our property convenor's son Campbell McKerracher and if you go to cammylad.com then you'll see more of his suff.

The smallest becomes the biggest

A gathering - (place small objects onto the communion table as this is spoken. At the very end hold a handful of seed and throw it into the congregation)

The smallest becomes the biggest
the seed becomes the tree
the droplet becomes the ocean
the word becomes life
the pearl becomes the treasure
the yeast becomes the loaf

There is no tiring of the kingdom
stretching
unfolding
expanding

the baptism becomes the adventure
the bread becomes the meal
the cross becomes the beginning
the church becomes the way
the net becomes the kingdom
the moment becomes eternity

The reign of God
cannot be tied down
boxed up
put on hold
or held back

the mustard seed becomes the kingdom
and the kingdom is on it’s way
