IN STEWARTON
t h e p eo p le o f st e warto n h ave r aised m ore
t h an £ 1 000 during c h rist ian aid we e k.
Church members helped Sainsbury’s customers pack their shopping
and offerings were taken at church services. Christian Aid raises
money to tackle the effects of poverty as well as its root causes. Last
year, 20,000 churches
across the country
helped raise £12m
for Christian Aid
Week.
Thanks to these
efforts, many more
people can look
forward to a future
free from poverty.

John Knox was filled with children for this year’s
light party, a light, bright alternative to Halloween. There was fancy
dress and older children came in their onesies. Roy and Ally from
our Fit For A King Summer holiday club welcomed the children
and there was a bouncy castle, music, crafts, hot dogs and ice cream!
The fun continues every Sunday morning at 11am.
