As a church we are keen to serve the community, whether locally or further afield. We are a collection centre for the local foodbank and in the past few years, we have organised free family fun days and fireworks events for the local area, as well as running a stall at the Ardrossan Highland Games with face-painting and activities for families.

Warm Hub

The Warm Hub has started as we open our doors to provide a safe, warm, welcoming space.  Spread the word, lookout for the posters. This is for anybody and everybody, contact us for further information.

 
 

Mission

As a church we want to be involved in what God is doing both locally and globally. Our missionary group organise regular events to inform and inspire us. Coming up are events about BMS, SAT7, WEC and OMF.

(See Events page for more detail)

 

Some of our members are also actively involved in the individual projects below, that serve the community.

Men’s Sheds

Men's sheds community spaces for men to connect, converse and create. The activities are often similar to those of garden sheds, but for groups of men to enjoy together. They help reduce loneliness and isolation, but most importantly, they’re fun.

For more information, visit their website.

Creative Hands

The Creative Hands group meet monthly to make cards, bookmarks, decorative and practical items for your home, knitted items for babies and children to name but a few! They then sell these at coffee and craft events during the year to raise funds for specific charities. 

They have close links with the Smiles Foundation, a charity working in Romania, but support local charities, too.

West Coast Furniture Bank 

This is a non-profit organisation providing household items free of charge to those in need. Referrals are taken from outside agencies e.g. social work & addiction services as well as personal referrals. In the six months from June -December 2017, 75 families were helped, and more than 300 items despatched!

If you have any items of furniture that might be useful, or you know someone who needs help, please get in touch.
