IMPORTANT
NEWS CONCERNING THE BOYS BRIGADE!
Parents please
note meetings of 1st Denholm Boys Brigade have been
temporarily suspended until further notice due to ongoing
work in the Church Hall at Denholm. Anyone interested in helping the BB's when the hall is once again up and running and who
is prepared to undergo child protection clearance and
BB leader training should contact any Elder or our interim
moderator, Revd. Neil Combe.
There
are a number of groups and activities within
the parish for the younger members of our congregation.
New members are always made welcome.

The
Wrigglers Sunday Club

Club is for our younger children, and meets

fun and participation, with games and music.

The
Secret Gathering
Whilst currently in
recess, The Secret Gathering
meets on an occasional basis for our older children
and provides a friendly, relaxed forum
in which the many challenges facing today's
youth can be shared and discussed. These
meetings are intended to help growing children
connect with God, to connect with each other,
and to learn to live life well, and to help
turn what can sometimes be difficult experiences
into positive ones.
