Thought for the week
Philippians 4: 4-9
4 Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! 5 Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. 6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
8 Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me—put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you.

News
The decision came in from church headquarters on the 2nd March, that our appeal against closure under the Presbytery Mission Plan has been rejected and so our beloved church will close in 2025 at a date yet to be communicated to us by Presbytery.
For now, however, we are still very much open both for worship and for all our hall users.
We are very lucky that Dalry will continue to have a place of worship beyond 2025, in the current Trinity Church.
There is much work and co-operation to get on with, fellowship to build on and outreach to maintain.
We look forward to seeing you all at both worship on a Sunday morning or at any of the groups that are currently running.
