Hello to you all, especially if you havent heard in a while.  There’s a lot to do here.   I’ve attached a couple of pics from the recent school outing for Grade 7 & 8 (S1 and 2 in Scotland) to En Gedi on the shore of the Dead Sea (national nature reserve).  You may remember En Gedie as the place where David cut off the corner of Saul’s cloak (1st Samuel).

I also managed to fulfil an ambition of bathing in the Dead Sea.  Love to all

Coming out of the 2008 church attendance census we discovered that around 1/3 of those who came to church are men and 2/3 are women.  The question posed by our discusison in Presbytery and also to kirk sessions is ‘Why are there more women and than men in church.’  To aid your discussions and your thinking why not have a look at the online video discussion from premier christian tv.

Five members of Cowdenbeath Trinity Church, Mitch and Isobell Drysdale, Caroline Bowman, Ella coates  and Helen Heggie are going on an exchange trip for a week to visit the Evangelical Church of the Czech Republic. They will visit churches in Miraslov and Olomouc. During the visit they will also spend time in the churches, the local schools, a school for retarded children and visits to families in the local community. The group will take with them small gifts for their host families and two banners, one for each church, reflecting the unity we share with them. There will of course be time for some sightseeing and the hosts have planned time for this in Prague and in Cesky Krumlov one of the most beautiful towns and castle in the Czech Republic. The group will meet with the congregations and during an evening service will share some of the work that happens in Trinity Church
