Dr. David W. Lacy, B.A.,B.D.,D.Litt. There is always something going on in Henderson Church and this is because of the many groups that run throughout the year. There is the Guild, The Friendship Club, The Playgroup and the Sunday School (S Clubs and All Stars) to name but a few.

From the Manse
From the Manse What are we doing to our children? – 1) I watched the three youngsters (around 14/16 years old – 2 girls and 1 boy) falling about drunk in John Finnie St. at about 10.30pm that Friday evening. I greeted them and asked them why they wanted to “get hammered”. After the usual, mostly incoherent shouts, they answered that that’s what their parents do at the weekends. One of them told me she had even been given money by her mother to get out of her way and “get drunk in her own space”. I reeled with the horror of that picture of rudderless, amoral behaviour - encouraged by parents! |

From the Manse Linda and Frank The new heating systems in the church and the halls have been installed! ACE Heating did a wonderfully quick and efficient job over three weeks in July when we were all out of the building. A new sound system was also installed in the church at the same time to save lifting carpets and floorboards more than once! Inevitably, this created lots work preparing and tidying up. And most of that fell to our two employees – Linda Gilchrist, our Church Officer and Frank Gardner, our Caretaker. They are heroes! Unsung usually – but not this time! Their efforts on our behalf were above and beyond the call of their duty – and we thank them. Next time you see them, thank them yourself! They are good people. |
