Lossiemouth Church of Scotland

On 24 October 2021 there will be a Climate Sunday service at St James’ as part of a wider movement for such services in the lead-up to the COP26 Summit in Glasgow in October/November.

More details will follow.

26 September 2021 is the 18th Sunday after Pentecost and the main reading this week comes from Mark’s Gospel – Mark 9:38-50.

The version set out below is taken from The Message, rather than the usual ‘New International Version’ (of the Bible), for a bit of variety. The version read in the service (video link to recording, below) is from the NIV version, as usual.

Should you wish to download the sermon as a PDF, a version is available at the link here.

Below, you will find the main scripture for this week, the Order of Service, the Video of the Service led by Rev. Geoff McKee, and a Musical Selection by Katherine Robertson, with an interesting local, Moray connection.

19 September 2021 is the 17th Sunday after Pentecost. Welcome to today’s online service materials.

Below, you will find Rev. Geoff McKee’s Order of Service for today, together with the Video Service.

Last week’s service was posted only to YouTube.

This week – 12 September 2021 – we welcome back Rev. Morris Smith. Below, you will find the Order of Service, the Video Service embedded from YouTube and a Musical Selection from our Musical Director, Katherine Robertson.

The Sermon is entitled “Saved For” and is based on Mark 8: 27 – 38, the text of which is also set out, below.

The Church is now open for Sunday services without number restrictions – no booking is required to attend the Church in person. If you’ve any questions at all or would like to come to a service but need assistance to do so, please get in touch. We would be delighted to see you.

Here are some links to previous services conducted by Margaret at St James’ – 22 March 2020 (when virtual services were a ‘new thing’) and 24 January 2016 (at a time of transition to our ‘new’ minister, Rev. Geoff McKee).
