Church Notes

September—First Sabbath, Ullapool; second, Strathy; third, Tarbert (Harris), and Stoer. 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 the Communions should be sent to the Editor.

Collection for this Month.—The Collection for this month is for the College Fund.

Proceedings of Synod.—Owing to present circumstances it was decided that the Proceedings of the Synod be published this year in the ordinary issue of the Magazine for August. The Magazine Committee regret that owing to lack of space and other considerations they have not been able to print all the Reports in this issue. They shall, however, be printed in due course (D.V.).

An Appeal.—An urgent appeal was made by the members of the South African Mission for a motor car as the old one was beyond repair. The Committee unanimously agreed that as a car was absolutely necessary for the work of the Mission the sum of £200 be sent on loan and that an earnest appeal be made to our people in the Magazine for subscriptions to refund that loan. I would therefore in name of the Committee appeal to kind friends to come to our aid in this deserving case. As will be seen from the July Magazine a liberal friend sent £20 for the above purpose. Subscriptions will be gratefully received and acknowledged by Rev. N. MacIntyre, 4 Warrender Park Crescent, Edinburgh, and Mr. John Grant, 4 Millburn Road, Inverness.
—N. MacIntyre, Convener.
