Union of Markinch and Thornton. The Service of Union will take place at Thornton Parish Church on Thursday 5th June at 7.00pm. If you require transport to Thornton on Thursday evening please contact John Wood or any other church elder. John’s number is 01592 750327. The induction service for a new minister (when found), will be at Markinch, as Markinch can cater for a greater number of people and the induction service is likely to be busier.

Sunday Service Times As we will become a joint charge on 5th June, the time of our Sunday services will change from 11am to 11:30am from 8th June 2014, with services at Thornton being at 10am.

Selection of Nominating Committee A reminder that we will be selecting a Nominating Committee after the Service next Sunday, 8th June. Anyone interested in joining the Nominating Committee should be proposed and seconded, and in their absence, assurance given by the proposer that the nominee is prepared to act on the Committee. Successful members will be expected to devote time to regular meetings and may be expected to travel to hear prospective candidate ministers preach. Our Interim Moderator, May Russell, will preside at this meeting and John Wood will act as Clerk.

Coffee Mornings on Thursdays from 10.00am – 11.30am in the church hall. Join us for tea or coffee and a chat. You are always welcome.

The Flowers in Church today have been gifted by Doug and Betty Jolly in loving memory of their younger daughter Barbara.  There are also flowers in church today in loving memory of Mrs McMorran. These were gifted Mrs Duff and family.

Church Flowers If you would like a gift of flowers distributed to anyone in the congregation please contact Teresa Henderson on 01592 754892.

The Youth Club are planning on adding some bedding plants to the flower tubs in the church hall garden. They would appreciate donations of plants and these can be left in the church hall until 19th June.
