Advent
Sunday: you are invited
Advent: for some a time of joyful anticipation, for some a time to reflect on happy times now passed, for some a time to work for peace and justice for all.
In worship on Sunday we light a candle of peace… a candle for peace… and ponder what it means to be a channel of peace in today’s world…
You are warmly invited to come along to church on Sunday and share the journey… yes you who are there Sunday by Sunday, and you who haven’t been for a while… you who are glad and you who carry hurt and pain… you who are certain… you who are curious… you who have questions, doubts and fears…
Yes, you will be welcome at your local parish church…

Remembrance Sunday 11th November
Remembrance Sunday 11th November 2018
This year, on the 100th Anniversary of the 1918 Armistice, Remembrance Sunday falls on Armistice Day 11th November. There will be opportunities at the peninsula churches and war memorials to remember the cost of war including local lives lost in service to the country. We remember and we continue to work towards peaceful times for our world and its communities. At www.brunopeek.co.uk are details of a nationwide call to mark this centenary – including “Ringing out for peace”. www.armisticebells.com has details of a piece of music from the Scottish Chamber Orchestra to mark the centenary – which will feature bells from around the country – including the Strontian Church bell.
All are invited to share in these acts of remembrance.
