A Special Message from Christian Aid
about a Service of Remembrance for all those lost to us
to be held on Wednesday 4th November 2020 at 17:30
on https://www.christianaid.org.uk/events/service-reflection
Love... bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends
Christian Aid's Service of Remembrance fo this year will be pre-recorded and streamed online,
and we warmly welcome you to join together with us to remember and reflect.
The recording will also be available afterwards, for anyone unable to join at the time .
We’ve all been through enormous change and loss during the coronavirus pandemic, especially those who have lost a loved one. This special service of reflection is a time to come together in our grief in this difficult year and to remember and celebrate those we love, who are no longer here.
It is also a chance for those feeling a more general sense of loss to carve out time to acknowledge this and to reflect on it.
The service will be introduced by Amanda Mukwashi, our Chief Executive, and include a sermon from Dr Rowan Williams.
It will give time and space for personal reflection, and an opportunity to light a candle in memory, should you wish.
If you would like to see the name of a loved one on the screen during a moment of reflection within the service, we can arrange that. Just email Kerry at legacyteam@christian-aid.org

This week's online Sunday Service
for Sunday 18th October 2020 from St Quivox In the immortal words of Bob Dylan "It may be the Devil, or it may be the Lord, but you're gonna have to serve somebody." |
Now that the church is open again, there won't be a Midweek Reflection online.
The online Sunday Service will still be here for you. |
A message from Rev John McCutcheon
Welcome to the web page of St Quivox Parish Church in Ayr. Come on in and make yourself at home, because there are plenty of different things on our pages that we want to share with you that will give you a flavour of the rich history of our church and community.
However, we are not stuck in the past as we strive to maintain our Christian heritage and identity and there are plenty of things on the site to let you know what we are doing on a daily and weekly basis, although under the current conditions they are not as much as we are used to doing.
Whilst there is a lot of uncertainty all around us, the one thing that we believe to be true is God’s love for each and every one of us. Not just some but all of us. Therefore, as a Church we try to share that love with all who we come across. Hopefully, you can get a sense of that love as you look through our web page, and perhaps you may even get a sense of it through our online reflections and services.
Whether you do or don’t though, we invite you to come and find out for yourself about the warmth and love that shapes us as the people we want to be. Anytime you are in the vicinity of our church on a Sunday morning at 10.30 please come on in and make yourself at home and share in our morning worship. We would love to see you.
As usual if there is anyone from within the church or out with it who would like pastoral support or a chat or any other service please feel free to get in touch.
With every blessing
John
