Welcome. The Carse Statement of Affirmation.
All upcoming events should be on the 'events calendar'.
Worshipping Christ
- in diverse ways:
in church, we worship Christ, using a mix of the new and the old:
reading from the bible, singing songs, thoughts/reflections, story-telling and prayers led by worship leader and others.
All ages, including young people are always welcome.
We call it a 'service' because spiritually, we should be fresh and well maintained after a service.
Weekly service / worship times are at each 'location' ... view dates and times on the 'Events calendar' .
Services of worship are always public, everyone is welcome anytime.
- Online
services are anytime on youtube.
- Sunday morning services 9.30am each in both Abernyte and Inchture, 9:45am in Auchterhouse, 11am each in all Invergowrie, Longforgan, Muirhead
- 'Joint services' are great for making new friendships, feeling the celebration and joy of a larger gathering in worship:
- for Fowlis, Liff, Lundie, Muirhead and Auchterhouse are on the
LAST
Sunday of EACH month at 11am.
- for Abernyte, Inchture&Kinnaird, Invergowrie and Longforgan are on the FIRST Sunday of Mrc., May, July, Sep., Nov. at 10am.
- 'Reflective evening services' are with symbol, thought, music, reflection, around a contemporary Iona Community liturgy - first Sunday monthly in Abernyte Church at 6.30pm.
- Liturgy in the Episcopal tradition is used for services of worship by our neighbours and friends on Sundays 10:30am in All Souls Invergowrie .
alternative ways, fresh expressions:
- ‘Messy Church’: family, friends, fun, faith, food, free! Next: Saturday 28th June – You're welcome to activities, games, informal worship, fellowship and a meal, all around the theme of 'healing' . Please register here. This is for several generations together and we finish by eating supper together! Here's the poster.
- Holiday Club 'Wonder Zone': is in planning for 11-15.Aug. - see poster and registration form. Children P1-7 are invited to explore and be astonished, fascinated, full of wonder, come and enjoy!
- 'Reflective Evening service' - first Sunday of the month 6:30pm: calm, reflective, in an informal gathering with contemporary liturgy, prayer, symbol and music for all to take part as suggested. (venue: in Abernyte Church, next (NOT July!) 3rd August, 7th Sept., ... see events calendar)
- 'Outdoors with God' - once per month Saturdays: an alternative, possibly muddy way to worship, in the glorious outdoors. For people of all ages, active / hands-on, informal, with story and reflection. If you find 'Sunday morning church' difficult or want a bit of free space to explore, this may be just right for you. (awaiting a new date, t.b.c. ...)
