Kirk Session Corner
The Kirk Session has considered the training of members and will arrange for a Presbytery Trainer, Rev Irene Gillespie, to present a course on Pastoral Care – a subject at the core of Christian life.
The General Assembly has asked the Kirk Session to respond to the debate on Same-Sex Relationships and Ministry. Invitations will be given to attend a meeting shortly to discuss the issue and prepare our response.
Roy Anderson has been recommended to become our Presbytery Elder to succeed Eleanor Young who has diligently undertaken this work for the last 3 years. Apart from attending to the general matters of Presbytery, she has also served on the Education Committee and has found it most rewarding and enjoyable. We wish Roy well in this work.
Organisations within the church have been visited by Elders recently and the Kirk Session has received good reports on our groups and links – the Guild, J-Club, Guides and Brownies, Afternoon Club, Lunch Club and Hanover Court. Keep up the good work and ask for assistance if it is required.
The impact of Global Warming has reached Logie Kirk with close attention now being made to our ‘Carbon Footprint’. Ways of reducing fuel consumption in our premises are being investigated – any ideas?
The proposal to build a new hall or facility near the Kirk has not been forgotten. Roy Anderson is leading a small group which is considering fund-raising and feasibility matters.
The Kirk Treasurer has promised to make our accounts and budget a little simpler and more easily understood during a Stewardship Campaign later this year.
Elders and members are asked to remember our Minister, the Rev Stuart Fulton, in their prayers.

Used Stamps Appeal
Christmas will be here soon so all used stamps will be very welcome. There is a box in the Kirk vestibule covered with red Christmas paper. I look forward to taking a bumper bundle to 121 George Street in the New Year. During 2008, £1487 was raised to help girls in Kalimpong, India to get back into mainstream education. So far in 2009 we have raised £812 which will assist Roma people in the Czech Republic. Anne Pickles
