Tryst for Prayer
On Wednesday mornings
a group meets in the Tryst, or very occasionally the church, for
half an hour of singing, Biblical reflection and open prayer.
People are most welcome to attend and participate in prayer
in silence: there is never any pressure on individuals to pray aloud.
 The
group meets at 10 am when the Guild coffee
mornings are taking place; otherwise it meets at
12 noon .
There is a break for Christmas, Easter and the summer months.

Talents Group
The group meets fortnightly on Wednesday mornings alongside the Guild “Coffee and Pancakes”,
from September until April.
Made up of ladies, there is nothing to prevent gentlemen
from coming along too! Their
‘talents’ are many and varied: clothes and toys have been made for
Oxfam, the Ekwendeni Centre in
Malawi
, premature baby units in Scotland and
hospitals
for children in Europe
.
Christmas Craft Fairs and Coffee Mornings raise funds for
local organisations. Perhaps
more
importantly, their talents include discussion and listening, offering
friendship and support to all who care to come along.
Contact person: Jenny Cruikshank (Tel. 01796 472776)
The Banner created by the Talents Group, commemorates the
union of the East and West churches of Pitlochry
