Worship is the centre around which we build our life together. In worship we can bring the fullness of our lives to God: our joy and our pain, our laughter and our tears, our hopes and our doubts, our questions and our certainty. Jesus Christ above all others understands the complexity of our humanity and loves us all the more.
In this time of emergency, the Church of Scotland has suspended physical gatherings for worship, but that doesn’t mean we can’t come together in spirit, called to proclaim the Good News in word and deed. We are charged to go into the world in peace, honouring all people, loving and serving the Lord.
For the time being, we plan to go online with acts of worship, some generated here in Troon, others sourced from the Church across Scotland and maybe even around the world.
We invite you to make use of these online resources, and come and worship with us this and every week.
