Where does the time go? Life whizzes by too fast to blog it!

Here's an update on the organ music played at Killermont Parish Church Bearsden, over the past few weeks:-

  • 31 July 2005 : A joyous acclamation by Lani Smith; Lascia ch'io pianga by Handel; Jesu, joy of man's desiring by Bach; and Festal Flourish by Gordon Jacob.
  • 7 August 2005: Romanza on The White Rock by Vaughan Williams; The dark island ; Sarabande in D, from the cello suite in D by Bach; and Judex, from Mors et Vita by Gounod.
  • 14 August 2005: the minister's birthday, so the music was deliberately upbeat. Coronation march by Meyerbeer; Scherzo for the White Rabbit, by Nigel Ogden; Tuba tune by C. S. Lang.

Prayer points:-

  • Pray for people undergoing radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Pray that the side-effects won't be too debilitating. Pray and give thanks for the dedication and skill of medical staff and lab technicians.
  • Pray for all the friends and relations affected by the illness of a loved one.
  • Pray for school-children returning to their studies after the summer holidays, whether to their old school or to a new one. Pray that God will be with them as they rise to new challenges. Pray, too, for students, and for anyone who got lower - or higher - grades than they expected, for they will have big decisions to take over the next few weeks or months.

ALL AGE WORSHIP ON SUNDAY 21ST AUGUST!

Come and worship at Killermont tomorrow, as we celebrate the start of a new session. The band will be playing - they need you to sing!
