Ascension Day, Thursday 29th May, 8pm Being held in Crichton Collegiate Church, Pathhead
On the evening of Ascension Day, we will once again be returning to Crichton Collegiate Church for a sung Eucharist service, led by Rev Nick Wills, and with our choir singing. This is an ideal opportunity to see a beautiful ancient church that is not often open! For directions, see: https://www.crichtonchurch.com/ We thank the Trustees for inviting us to share this service with them.
