Message from the Manse
I have just come from a wonderful organ recital and Choir concert in Logie Kirk. On a Saturday afternoon the church was busy and talent was very evident!
I have just spent three days with probationer ministers at a conference in Gartmore House, working alongside them as they studied and prepared for the next stage of their lives in the ministry. Amongst other things, the people at the conference were being encouraged to use the talents of their future congregations and enable them to use their talents in the work of the Church!
I know I am always saying we should do more, but maybe I am not being direct enough. Having seen what a few people can do in watching Alasdair and the choir today, I do wonder if you have a talent that you think we could use at Logie? Is there something you think you could do to help people in Causewayhead and Logie Parish?
Have you a talent in working with young people? Would you like to sing with the choir? Would you like to spend some time visiting people who could do with some company? Have you a skill in preparing business plans? Have you any skills you think might be helpful to this church and its community? I bet you have!
After being ill for a while and being the subject of your care and concern, I know there is no shortage of love in our church family.
We are all called by God to share who we are. We are all called to do wonderful things here and I look forward to us all making a difference where we are.
I hope this year is a special year in Logie and I hope you feel welcome to play your part!
Also, I would like to say a very personal “thank you” for all of your kindnesses over the last few months!!
