Worship Services
Sunday Service
Our normal Sunday worship service starts at 11am (See forthcoming dates).
All visitors are made welcome and everyone is provided with an Order of Service at the door. Hymns are displayed on the large screen and bibles are provided in the pews.
Sunday 13th October
You can normally view the Order of Service the day before each service by clicking on the picture to the left.
Each week the leaflet will highlight the scheduled hymns and readings and any special intimations.
The Order of Service was last updated on Saturday, Oct 12 at 02:35 PM
Online Services
Video recordings of most services are streamed live. Details will be available each week on our Bennochy Live! page.
You can also watch previous services on our Sunday Reflections catch-up page.
Offering
The offering plate can be found at the start of the centre aisle to allow members and visitors to place their offering prior to commencement of the service. The offering plate will be taken by one of the Welcome Team and placed on the Communion table during the first hymn where it will be dedicated by whoever is leading worship on that day.
Communion
Formal communion is observed three times a year with informal communion being held after the monring service on various dates during the year. Both are indicated in the event calendar, below.
Joining the Church
We have a number of people who come regularly to Church but are not members. Perhaps Church membership is something you don’t wish to commit to at the moment so why not consider being an Adherent which means "a person who regularly attends the Church and participates in programs of the Church but who has not become an Active Member"? An Adherent will receive the same communications as regular members and also be eligible to vote on important congregational matters (new Minister for example). If this is something you are interested in please speak to one of our Welcoming Team or George Drummond, Session Clerk.
Sunday School
For children, the Sunday School is available each week during school terms. Youngsters (aged 3 to 12+) take part in first part of the main service, followed by their own activities in the Meldrum Room.
Crèche
A crèche is available for ages 0 to 3, with our skilled team of child minders.
Activity sheets and crayons for children are also available at all services.
School Services
The North Primary School hold their services at Bennochy Parish Church. See below for dates. All are welcome to attend.
