Taking Care – Tuesday 1 October
Taking Care is the name of the safeguarding policy and programme of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland. The aim is to create and promote a safe environment for all. We believe that next to proclaiming God’s Word and the love of Christ, nothing could be more important than keeping our children and young people safe.
On Tuesday 1st October there will be a Drop In clinic for the completion of the Access NI forms, which requires original documentation to be shown to the Designated Person (Audrey Stewart) or the Interim Minister (Heather Rendell). These need to be copied and signed. All persons working with
Under 18s and vulnerable adults must have completed Foundation Level
Safeguarding and have the Access NI form submitted. Audrey, Heather and
Denise will be in the Church Halls on 1 October between 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. to enable all our volunteers to finalise this process.
Welcome Back!

17th May 2019: A celebration of Gabrielle’s Ministry
A celebration of Gabrielle’s Ministry will be held in the Church on Friday 17th May 2019 commencing at 19:30 hours. Come early to get a seat. The evening will reflect on Gabrielle’s work at home and overseas.
Undoubtedly it will be an emotional evening of happiness and sadness as we say our final farewell, but let’s fill the church as we did in October 2014 to celebrate 20 years of Gabrielle’s Ministry and also again as Gabrielle preached, as our minister, for the last time on Sunday 31st March 2019.
A light supper will be served after the Service in the Church Hall.
