There will be a short service for families and anyone else who wants to come, on Sunday 1st December at 9.30 am in Blairgowrie Parish Church Hall.  There will be hot rolls at this.

This is intended as an ecumenical event and will be timed so as not to impinge on the times for any other services. Pleas

“Shine Your Light” is a UK & Ireland campaign to encourage as many Christians as possible to take the Christmas message out into public places on the weekend of the 14th December.  Last year they recorded 75,000 Christian participants from 700 churches.  Endorsement for the event came from church and governmental leaders and was highlighted by many media outlets.

In support of this year’s bid to record attendance of 100,000 participants nationwide, Blairgowrie Parish Church invites you to gather at 2pm on Saturday 14th December in the Wellmeadow (or in the Parish Church Hall if the weather is bad) to sing carols and narrate the Christmas story from scripture.  Hot drinks and mince pies will be served in the Church Hall afterwards.

Although there is no need to rehearse well-known carols, Keith Redwood will lead a “sing through” in the Blairgowrie Parish Church Hall at 6pm on Sunday 1st December.  All are welcome.

Let us join together to put Christ back at the centre of Christmas.

Joyce Beattie will lead a service for residents, staff and visitors at Balhousie Nursing Home.

She welcomes anyone who would like to come along and join in with the singing.

Please be there for 1.45pm so that everyone can go in together and the service will start at 2.00 pm.

Holy Communion is a sacrament of God’s grace and unconditional love.
