YSunday
This group, for young people of secondary school age, mixes social activities with items exploring the Christian faith and its relevance for youth.
Our YSunday group meets on Sundays, fortnightly in the manse, at 7pm until 8.10pm.
The 2010 - 2011 seeason started with a BBQ at the manse on Sunday August 22nd, a BBQ at the manse between 7pm and 8.30pm.
This is a 20 strong group which is very much alive and attuned to the world around it; a very good example being the sponsored sleep-outs in aid of the Cyrenians which have raised thousands of pounds for the homeless over the past 5 years.
How many secondary schoolchildren get the chance to work on projects in Malawi or in Romania? Not many - but ours do !! Could you plan and run a church service? Our YSunday members can .... and do!

The next event is on Sunday 22nd August, a BBQ at the manse between 7pm and 8.30pm.
YSunday members help with Sunday Club and the Holiday Bible Club; run the church service on occasions; run discos for children in 
the local community with proceeds going to overseas charities chosen by the children. Junior leaders themselves help organise the activities and programme.
There are social and sporting activities too, such as trips to the Compass Christian Centre in Glenshee (already pencilled in for February 2010) which is well equipped for skiing and as shown has a great climbing wall.
Perhaps the pinnacle of achievement is the participation in our Overseas Missions projects to Malawi in 2005 and to Romania in 2009. These projects provided demanding opportunities to stretch our YSunday members' abilities and to make a real difference to people's lives. You really have to talk to some of the YSunday members who've been on either the Malawi project or the Romania project; these were tough projects involving hard work and difficult conditions. See the Overseas Missions page on this site.
