Recent Site Updates
Any other changes that our
webteam thought you might like to know about are shown below:
- July 2008 - Help wanted - The web audio team would really like your help getting the list of sermons up to date. This can be a one off - you don't need to join a rota. You don't even need to edit sound files or upload stuff (though if you can, that would be great). If you think you might be able to help us out, please email us or talk to us on Sunday - click here.
- June 2008 - The Mournes Invasion has happened. And even the stragglers left behind on the hill made it down, eventually, and more or less in one piece. There will be pictures soon...
- February 2008 - The sermons page has changed! Instead of a long list, with the ones you want to see languishing at the bottom, we have a new set of pages that allows you to find exactly what you are looking for. The recordings are arranged by speaker, series, and date recorded. Give it a go, and let us know what you think. See the "Audio Sermons" menu on the left for the new options, or - click here.
- Saturday 26 January 2008 - Trevor Warner's "open house" has moved! It will now take place at Roy and Isobel Gamble's house at 7:30pm (it's still happening this Saturday, though). Don't go to the Patterson's. It isn't there!
- Friday 25 January 2008 - The fellowship evening is at 6pm in the Morton Community Centre. Bring some food, and we can eat at 6. If you can't make it for 6, come when you can. For a Google map with directions from the church - click here.

- July 2007 - Susan Beattie passed away at around 7.30 am on Thursday 12th July. Our thoughts and prayers are with her nephew, Chris, and the rest of the family at this time.
