Dear Friends in the Northwest
This Sunday is the fifth Sunday in Lent; there will be a service in Ullapool. Next weekend, the weekend of Palm Sunday, there will be a service in Kinlochbervie on Saturday and services in Ullapool and at Inchnadamph Old Kirk on Sunday.
The full list of services for Palm Sunday, Holy Week and Easter can be found in the News and Notices section of this website.
This last session of this year’s Lent Course, Calling a Wounded Earth Home, is this Sunday at 11.30 a.m. in St Mary’s.
On Wednesday 25th March, there is an information evening about the Gaza Sumud Flotilla, an international humanitarian effort to provide relief to Gaza, from 6-8pm in the Ullapool Ferry Terminal. Come for all or part of the evening; there will be refreshments, an Intro to the Flotilla at 6.30pm and a film at 7pm.
A reminder that the Bishop’s Lent Appeal this year will go to the Episcopal Church in The Philippines to help the church support the community who live by scavenging on the Sitio Pintor rubbish dump in Manila, a site visited by Bishop Mark. Contributions should be placed in an envelope marked ‘Bishop’s Lent Appeal’, and either handed to me or placed in the Offering Basket at one of our services, preferably by Easter.
With love and prayers
Rev’d Clare
