A Message from our minister
Why not come along and join us this Sunday?
Our Minister, Rev Mark Smith, explains a little bit more about Dunscore Church and what you can expect if you haven’t been with us for a wee while:
Over the past year we have developed our patterns of worship to include the new, the old, the traditional, the formal, the informal, various organists, MP3 backing tracks, YouTube videos, yet … nothing has changed!
However, we gather together to worship, the basic life of the church, the Body of Christ, continues. We come together recognising our need of God, remembering His great Love shown to us through Jesus, and praising Him through the holy Spirit. We also meet to encourage each other, to learn from God’s Word, and to grow our faith as we share His Love in the world.
The variety of worship reflects the variety of our members and means that there should be “something for everyone” and I hope that variety is serving us well, whatever our back-story.
Remember that Jesus welcomed everyone, challenged the traditional ways, and sought to focus people on God and His Way for their lives. That is our aim in our worship.
We’d love you to join us this Sunday.
Everyone is very welcome.
God Bless,
REV Mark RS Smith

WEEKLY PRAYER
Holy and wonderful God,
we praise You and exalt Your name.
All over the world, Your people bless You in a thousand tongues,
and we come to add our cries and our whispers,
and the sighs Your Spirit awakes in our hearts.
You speak to us, God in so many ways –
in song and word and picture;
in cloud and wind and flame;
and in the person of Jesus Christ,
who baptizes with Holy Spirit and with fire.
Forgive us Lord when we choose the easy road, the quiet life,
and close our eyes to the pain of others,
to the opportunities we have of doing good,
to the great scope of Your purposes.
Draw us in afresh to the friendship of Christ and the power of his Spirit, we pray,
for Your mercy’s sake.
Amen.
