FIND US ON
Dear Friends
May I offer you, through our website, a warm welcome to Alloway Parish Church.
Ordinarily I would be sharing with you a little history of the village, best known as the birthplace of Robert Burns – Scotland’s national poet.
I would be sharing with you the lively life and witness of the open and welcoming Church family.
However we live in extraordinary times.
On 11th March 2020, the World Health Organisation (WHO) declared the corona virus to be a global pandemic.
Physical isolation and distance are now the key words of our society,
Spiritually, we still seek to promote a sense of spiritual well being and fellowship. We have designed our website for that purpose.
Scripture reminds us Jesus endured a testing time in the wilderness.
Jesus knew the experience of not having prayers answered the way he would want them.
Yet Easter would come!
We remain that Easter people!
May God bless you and yours
Rev Neil McNaught
“Good is stronger than evil; love is stronger than hate;
Light is stronger than darkness; life is stronger than death.
Victory is ours, through him who loves us.”

NOTICES
A word of thanks for the community's generous support on Mothering Sunday of the Foodbank.
The food and donations were uplifted on the day by a very grateful Food Bank Volunteer.
The Food Bank have requested that we open Sunday 29th March 12noon-2pm asking that people, at this challenging time, respond as generously as they can. If you are out for your single exercise on Sunday, why not walk down to the Food Bank outside the Alloway Church Halls and make a deposit at our branch.
Given the new government restrictions Alloway Parish is now closed for Public worship and personal prayer.
