BOOKS: The books for sale in the Hall of Friendship will be removed by mid-February. If you would like to take any books, then now is a great time to add to your collection. A small donation would be appreciated. No more donations of books, please.

THE 2025 FWO ENVELOPES: There are a few envelopes left in the transept for collection by District Elders, specifically Districts 5, 14, 22 and 41. If envelopes are no longer required, then please mark them “no longer required” and I will arrange to remove them from the list. Thank you. Colin McAughtrie, FWO Convenor

SNOW CLEARING VOLUNTEERS: We are looking for volunteers who can help clear snow around the church entrances on Sunday mornings, when required. If you would be willing to be part of the WhatsApp group being set up to be used on snowy mornings, please contact Malcolm Pickard (malcolmpickard@btinternet.com) or the church office (office@greenbankglasgow.org.uk).

AFTER SERVICE TEA: We are still seeking new volunteers to join this rota. If you enjoy having tea and coffee after the service, please consider volunteering to help. Even if you are able to be a ‘reserve’ for times when volunteers need to swap and are finding it difficult to find a replacement, that would be great. New volunteers (including ‘reserve list’) should contact the church office by calling 0141 644 1841 or emailing office@greenbankglasgow.org.uk.

BIBLE READERS: There is a new bible readers rota sheet for January-March on the table at the back of the transept. If you are able to help with bible readings, please add your name and contact details to the sheet.

DONATIONS REQUIRED: The Link Building is open for all donations on Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday mornings.

LHM DONATIONS: Donations can be put on the trolley in the Link building. UHT milk, diluting juice, kettle foods and toiletries are always needed. Your donations are very much appreciated.
