You may soon notice a new look to e-Giving! Starting this week, donors visiting e-Giving will see a new version of e-Giving that has a new look & feel when you go online to give. Rather than using a username, you will now log in using your e-mail address associated with your profile and your current password. The information will stay the same (auto-giving will not change) but you may see some updates to the platform. Let us know what you think!
Little Scots Nursery Helpers Needed Remember the words of Jesus from Matthew, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these”? We need some additional caring adults to help with our nurseries during services on the following dates: November 26, December 17, 24, and 31. These are dates where many of our nursery staff are on break and go home for the holidays. If you are interested, please contact Robyn Holmes, Nursery Coordinator, at [email protected].

I just need someone to talk to… Ever feel this way? Caring communications with others is a basic human need. Stephen Ministers, lay people who offer confidential Christian caring, can help meet that need. For a listening ear, contact one of our ministers or a Stephen Leader to discuss being matched with a Stephen Minister.
