On a Sunday evening, young people over the age of 12 are made very welcome at the Youth Fellowship which meets from 6.45 to 8.00 pm. There is a mixture of Bible teaching, videos, fun activities, crafts, discussion and prayer. Approximately every 6 weeks, all the churches in our area come together, in different locations, for a Youth Fellowship event and when these meetings are not in Bridge of Weir, transport will be provided.

PRAYER and BIBLE STUDY MEETING

On the first and third Wednesday evenings each month at 7.30 pm we meet for a time of prayer and Bible Study. (On the alternate weeks there are house groups which meet to share fellowship, to pray and to study the Bible). This provides an opportunity for praying together and for learning more about the Bible and discussing together parts of the Bible we are unsure about.

CHURCH CHOIR

Choir practices are held in the Parlour from 7.45 to 9 pm on Thursdays and anyone who enjoys singing and would like to share in leading the praise on Sundays will be made most welcome.

The MUSIC GROUP also meets at 8.45 pm and if you can play an instrument or would like to sing with this group, you are welcome to join them.

FRIENDSHIP CLUB

There has always been a place in the Church for women to share in worship, fellowship and service, and on Monday evenings, approximately 6 times a year, the Friendship Club meets in the Pirie at 7.3O pm

WHIST CLUB

Every Tuesday afternoon at 2 pm a number of people gather for an informal chat, tea and coffee and an afternoon spent playing whist.










Freeland Ramblers have been on the go for over 10 years and previously went by the name of Freeland Hillwalkers – an indication that their aspirations and fitness levels are now on the decline!
However, they have still managed to visit a number of scenic and interesting places in recent years, as the photos below show, and whilst they may not be bagging Munros any more they still walk up to 10 miles on most of their walks.

The group comprises people from Freeland and their friends, and as well as experiencing some spectacular Scottish scenery in their walks, they also enjoy one another’s company and usually finish off with a meal or refreshments afterwards.


They normally have their outings on the last Saturday of each month and would welcome new members. In 2012, they have planned a varied programme of walks. If you would like more information about the Ramblers, please contact David Adam tel: 690192 or Andy Robertson tel: 690538. The programme of walks for 2012 can be found below or it can be downloaded as a pdf file - click Freeland Ramblers 2012
