Christian Aid Week - 13-19 May
This year’s Christian Aid Week runs from Sunday 13th until Saturday 19th May. As usual, our volunteers who take part in the house-to-house collection will be knocking on doors in the parish, so please welcome them and donate whatever you can. If you don’t see a collector – and unfortunately we cannot cover the whole parish – then there will be a chance to donate to Christian Aid at both services on Sunday 20th. See their 2012 TV advert below.
     
1st Cumbernauld Company, The Boys' Brigade
The Annual Display for our Boys' Brigade company will be held in the Forge Centre, Balloch on Thursday 17th May at 7pm. Please come along and show your support for our leaders and helpers, and most importantly the Boys, as they show you what they can do - and fund-raise for Christian Aid by buying the refreshments at the interval as well.
   
Heart and Soul 2012 - Sunday 20 MayHeart and Soul 2012 - Sunday 20 May
This year's celebration of the whole Church of Scotland will take place on Sunday 20 May and will use the whole of West Princes Street Gardens, Edinburgh. There will be something for everyone, including more activities for children and young people this year (click the picture to find out more).
Cumbernauld's five Church of Scotland congregations are organising coaches to the event for which the cost (return trip) will be £6 per person. We plan to leave Cumbernauld no later than 1pm and hope to leave Edinburgh no later than 6.30pm.  Places on the coach are limited, so please contact the church as soon as possible if you are interested in joining us.
   
Summer Fete - Saturday 26 May
Our Summer Fete will be held on Saturday 26th May from 1.30pm to 4.00pm in the Manse garden. The committee organising the Fete are looking for help in a number of areas: home baking for the Baking stall, sugar, tea, coffee and biscuits for the Tea Room, donations for the various stalls and prizes for games. Most importantly we are looking for people to help, before, during and after the event itself. Please speak to Duncan Whyte or any office-bearer if you can help. And don't forget to mark the date in your diaries - hope to see you there!
     
Stated Annual Meeting - Tuesday 29 May
The Stated Annual Meeting of the congregation will take place on Tuesday 29th May at 7.30pm in the Village Church. This is our chance to get an update on our activities and successes in 2011 and hear about our plans for the current year – all members and non-members are welcome to attend. Copies of the minutes of last year’s meeting are available from the church.
