Church Notes

Communions.—October—First Sabbath, North Tolsta; second, Ness and Gairloch; fourth, Lochinver, Greenock and Wick. November—First Sabbath, Oban and Dingwall (note change of date); second, Glasgow; third, Edinburgh and Dornoch; fifth, Halkirk. South African Mission—The following are the dates of the Communions:—Last Sabbath of March, June, September, and December. Note.—Notice of any additions to, or alterations of, the above dates of Communion should be sent to the Editor.

Title Deeds of Church Properties.—It was decided at the Synod that it would be advisable to have inserted in the Deacons’ Court Records of our respective congregations where the Title Deeds of our Church properties are kept.

To Whom It May Concern.—Any one intending to apply as a student in training for the ministry of the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland is advised to obtain from the Clerk of Synod (Rev. R. R. Sinclair, Free Presbyterian Manse, Wick) a copy of the Synod’s Regulations for the Reception and Training of Students. These should be carefully read and considered before proceeding with an application. It is to be clearly recognized that the Church cannot be held responsible for students who fail to comply with the rules, or who find themselves unable to attain to the standards of fitness therein set forth.

Uig (Lewis) Congregation.—The Uig congregation, which has been passing through a severe trial in recent months, has proved its loyalty to the Free Presbyterian Church. It is united as one man in its determination to adhere to the position taken up by it when it left the Church of Scotland and was received by our Church. We crave for it the sympathy and prayers of our people and trust that our people will continue to assist them in paying off the heavy debt on the manse. Contributions will be gladly acknowledged by Mr. Malcolm Maclellan, 28 Cliffe, Uig, Lewis.—Malcolm Gillies, Clerk of Presbytery.

Collection for October.—The Collection for this month is for the Home Mission Fund (Missionaries and Catechists—first collection which is to be taken up by book.

Borve (Harris) Appeal.—In last issue of Magazine “four miles,” should be from “seven to nine miles.”—D. J. Macaskill.
