RETIRING OFFERING: There will be a retiring offering taken today and on Sunday 20th October in aid of the National Evangelical Synod of Syria and Lebanon (NESSL), a partner church of the Church of Scotland . This is following on from a letter received from the Moderator of the Church of Scotland to all congregations, asking that we pray for and support the NESSL.
BIBLE READERS: There is a new bible readers rota sheet for October-December 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.
HARVEST THANKSGIVING SERVICE: Many thanks to all those who donated so generously to the LHM. Gifts of food, which are used to replenish their supplies for the winter months, as well as a beautiful bouquet of flowers, were delivered on Tuesday. A total of £757.51 (£112.75 of which was Gift Aid) was raised at the retiring offering. The LHM is very appreciative of the kindness shown to them by Greenbank Church members at this time and throughout the year.
