The second part of the course will be early in 2011, when the following topics will be covered:

The young folks are putting on a gospel concert to fundraise for the Pathfinder trip to Finland.

The musicians are all people attending Crieff Church who are bringing their talents together for this concert.

Come and hear  Pastor Duane McKey. who is the Vice President for the Southwestern Union in the USA. He will take  a short programme following the morning service. He has a very exciting approach that will be especially interesting for our younger people. Please encourage everyone to attend!

Following on from the Church Officer’s Training Day here are some links that were discussed in the ‘Children’s Ministries’ groups.
