There will be a baking stall, raffle and silent auction as well as a variety of plants for sale. There will be no pre-orders this year as Parklea cannot facilitate this, but we will still have Parklea plants as well as some grown by members of the congregation, so it will be a case of first come, first served.
Tickets will be available soon and we look forward to seeing you there.

Renfrewshire Foodbank

As the demand for the Foodbank in Renfrewshire continues to remain high, our Church is pleased to offer support by welcoming donations at The Cornerstone or at the Church service on Sundays.

There is always a need for tinned foods, meat, fish, soup, vegetables, pasta sauce, as well as cereals, biscuits, long life milk, diluting juice. Donations of toiletries, particularly shampoo, shower and shaving items, pet food and chocolate/sweets/crisps are also very much appreciated.

As usual donations can be dropped off at the Church on Sunday or at The Cornerstone when it is open for Chit Chat, Coffee Stop or Services.
