INTIMATIONS

1. Prayer Time continues Sundays 9 am.

2. Prayer Breakfast at Manse on Tuesday @ 7 am.  All are welcome to come for this short time of prayer and fellowship.

3. Bible Study and Prayer Meeting:  Wednesday @ 7.30 pm in Scone New Church, Committee Room 2.

4. The Stated Annual Meeting will take place on Thursday 18^th March, please note that Minutes of the Stated Annual Meeting and Finance Report are available for uplift and in the Church Vestibule.

5. Christian Aid Forth Bridge Cross.  The Bridge Cross this year takes place on Saturday 24 April and is suitable for all ages and abilities.  It is about 1.5 miles one way, a round trip of approximately 3 miles, and gives fabulous views across the Firth of Forth.  The sponsorship forms are now available from Jan Montgomery, in the absence of Gordon Pirie who is on holiday. Once again we stress that it is not necessary to ask people to sponsor you if you find that uncomfortable. Many of the Scone New walkers in the past chose to make a personal donation rather than ask for sponsorship.  Please join us - you will enjoy a lovely afternoon out with a little gentle exercise, good fresh air, and some refreshments on the way home.

6. Regarding the Edict citing the congregation to attend the Presbytery meeting at Scone Old hall at 7pm on 9 March could Elders and Board members please note that there is a message in pigeon holes asking for attendance to be confirmed to the Session Clerk. Could members of the congregation attending also let the Session Clerk know so that probable numbers are known. It would be very helpful to have a good turnout to show our strong support for the union.

FAIR TRADE STALL:   On the first Sunday of February and the first Sunday of each following month the stall will be sited in the vestibule of the hall after the service.
