PRINTER CARTRIDGES

We have registered with this recycling charity who will take used Inkjet Cartridges for recycling.

Each Cartridge recycled will raise £1

Only the main printer manufacturers' cartidges will be accepted - eg HP, Dell, Lexmark, Canon etc.

They will also not accept cartridges which have been refilled already.

There will now be a box in the Foyer in which you can put the above items. The box goes away when we have reached 25 cartridges.

The collection is FREE and the money is paid directly into the Church Account.

SO, LET'S GET RECYCLING FOR OUR CHURCH!

At the recent Christmas Fayre meeting the team thought it would be a good idea for us to produce a Church Recipe Book.

We could even have a
'Try before you Buy' night!

If you are willing to share your favourite recipes we would be so pleased to include them in our Recipe Book

Muriel Connell has kindly offered to collate the recipes for us.

Can I please have your favourite recipes in either Paper or Electronic format to the email address below. The dealine is 31st May

The Guild is an organisation within the Church of Scotland

Locally we meet fortnightly in the afternoon from October to March

Nationally there is a structure which provides a framework for us

The overall theme within a three year cycle is

‘Be bold, Be strong,

Go in joy, go in peace, go in love.’

During the three year cycle there are six interesting projects for which we raise money

Although open to men, our group consists of ladies who enjoy fellowship and a range of interesting speakers - with the inevitable cup of tea and home baking

We look forward to our opening meeting in October when our minister Jane will explore the theme ‘Go in Love’.
At the second meeting we will have a speaker from one of our projects - Caring for Mother Earth. Millions of Bolivians are struggling to survive in one of the poorest countries in the world. So far £72,215.44 has been raised towards providing solar powered ovens. Help is also given towards their use.
We look forward to a visit to our link Guild in Coatbridge for a Wedding Festival  - nostalgia with the promise of wedding cake!

Please contact Mrs Margaret Tindall for further information

On behalf of all the children who will receive the boxes you donated a VERY BIG THANK YOU. We collected 60 boxes and other items to fill possibly another 15 boxes. A container will be filled with 800 cartons which equates to 9,600 boxes which will soon be on it's way to Liberia - Alister Boyle

      The Alpha Course       

Our introductory supper is on the 14th April at 6.30pm in Campsie Church.

Why not come along and join us for a very informal supper and find out all about our Alpha course.

At the supper you will meet everyone who is involved in running the course and they will explain how it all works.

You will be able to ask any questions at all that you may have about the course.

There is absolutely no cost to you or any commitment to attend the course!

Why not just come along and see what you think?

The course runs on Wednesday evenings and also includes one Saturday morning

The Alpha Course really could make a big difference in your life as it has to many, many others all over the world.

Please contact Jane Denniston for further information
