Country Fair Weekend

The Country Fair will take place in Kirkcudbright on the weekend of 8th and 9th of July.
Once again the Summer Festivities committee have been working away to organise a great event; stalls, displays and attractions ....something interesting for everyone!

As in previous years the refreshment café tent will be run by a team of volunteers from Kirkcudbright Parish Church.  
It's a great advantage to have a good number of people helping in this endeavour, and is great fun, so if you'd like to volunteer to spend a couple of hours 'serving' or if you feel able to contribute some baking or a pot of soup this would be a huge help to the team.

Refreshments will be available 10am-4pm each day and most people who volunteer aim to help out for a two hour stint, and of course any help offered will be much appreciated.

The atmosphere is always one of conversation, hospitality and fun so if you'd like to volunteer or wish to find out more, please email the church office at: church@kirkcudbrightparishchurch.org.uk

Please join us!  You'll be made most welcome.

The service will begin at 7pm and we hope you will join us in welcoming Rev. Collard to his new Interim Ministry.

We look forward to seeing you.

Summer 'Open Church'

During June, July and August, Kirkcudbright Parish Church will be holding 'Open Days' on Wednesdays and Thursdays between 10am and 4pm.

Visitors will be welcomed by volunteers to provide a friendly face, and who will have information leaflets to hand out, which will help people get the most from their visit.

If you would like to join the team of volunteers providing this 'welcome' at the church, we would be delighted to hear from you!
Shifts will be organised in 2 hour slots on each of the days; 10am-12pm, 12-2pm and 2-4pm, and there will be 2 people on duty during each shift.

Kirkcudbright is well know for its friendliness and fascinating history, so the more volunteers we have to provide a warm welcome, and help show off our lovely church, the better!  Perhaps you have a friend or relation who might be interested too? 

If you would like to help, please contact the church office, who will put you in touch with the person organising the Open Days:  church@kirkcudbrightparishchurch.org.uk

Thank you!
