Sorry – we lost our internet connection for a period at the start of this service. Today we welcome Karen Crawford from Craigiebuckler who leads us in worship. The Session Clerk read the edict from Presbytery which we heard last week, advised of a Session meeting on 7th September, suggested that if any of our on-line viewers wish an electronic copy of the magazine, they get in touch with him a.g.w.robertson@btinternet.com, and underlined that the Guild meeting scheduled for a week on Tuesday would be at 2pm on the Thursday instead. We join the service midway through the first hymn.
