Time to Remember 2022

Hi All

We wanted to let you all know about our Time to remember (or Blue Christmas) service on Friday 2nd December at 7pm in Bellshill Central Parish Church. The service is in conjunction with Potts Funeral Directors and is ecumenical with partners from both Church of Scotland and our Roman Catholic Church friends in Bellshill.

This is a service for all those who find the Christmas season a painful time. It may be a loved one has died, or a loss of a meaningful relationship, marriage, job, security or a sense of direction.

The service will be a gathering for remembering and reflecting, using readings, music and an opportunity to light a candle.

Afterwards refreshments will be available in the Church Hall for those wishing to stay behind to speak with clergy present or others who have come along to remember a loved one.

Please can you share this with your local church community, and via any of your social media platforms. If you can include this in any orders of service etc that would be greatly appreciated

Any names for inclusion can be emailed to ttr@Bellshillcentral.church
