A MESSAGE FAE THE MANSE Dear Friends Last evening we travelled through to Aberlady in East Lothian to join in a celebration – family and friends gathered together, stories and jokes, laughing, singing and dancing. Before supper the grace that was shared called us to love and encourage one another to live the life God calls us to, in the great company of friends. Our church family is also a great company of friends. We too share stories and jokes, with laughing and singing. Dancing, not so much… but that can be worked on! We share in the joys and delights and we share in the difficulties and the sadness’s. We are family and we belong together. Some of you will have heard another story in church this week of belonging. We spent time with the children looking for the final piece of a jigsaw – to make it complete. “Without that piece, it is not right, it is not finished,” said one young person. We shared the story of the lost sheep – the shepherd had 99 perfectly fine sheep, but cared so much about the one that was missing, he searched high and low until he found it. Without that last sheep, the flock was not complete, not right, not finished. We reflected that as a church family we need each other in the same way – our presence at church is good for us and the company is not complete without us. We belong together. Like any family, there may be things that set us apart from one another. Like any family, we may have our favourites! Like any family, sometimes it is not so easy to love one another and live the life God calls us too. But God’s encouragement to us is to keep at it, as he keeps searching for us, keeps loving us, keeps finding us. We are not ever truly lost perhaps we just wander off the path for a bit. There are some life events that help us feel closer to God. Perhaps, the birth of a child, an answered prayer, the love of those close to us. Some life events though, make it hard to come close to God. When we are angry, hurting, grieving, scared. Sometimes the love and encouragement of those in our church family is hard to take when we feel so vulnerable we feel we might “lose it”, when emotions are so close to the surface. But God keeps searching you out, especially when you feel like that. The children’s hymn says “God made you, God knows you, and God will understand…. God made you, God knows you and God will always care for you.” That care is shown in the touch and the look of friends, in the peace found in prayer, in the recognition that we are not alone. This can happen anytime, anywhere, but once a year, as a parish grouping, we gather in worship to remember someone close to us who has died. That service offers a chance to bring to God and to each other those difficult and painful, happy and wonderful memories. The Remembering Service is on Sunday November 3rd at 2.30pm in Flemington Hallside Church and will be supported by Cambuslang Bereavement Support Group. There is a place for you there. Wishing you every blessing – we are glad to be part of this family. Leslie and Libby Milton

Church Committees Over the past few months the then Administration Team with the agreement of Kirk Session has reorganised the Kirk Session Committees. It was considered that the Teams required at and just after the Union are not those necessary after five years. The new Committees will report to a Management Committee which, having been given authority from Kirk Session will look after the secular business of the Church. The new structure is intended to give a more coordinated approach to the secular business of the Church. In the new Structure, Fundraising is everyone’s business but Finance will co-ordinate the timing of Fundraising Events. Those initiating the event will be responsible for gathering together a group to run the event including catering and must first check with the Treasurer the timing of any other events. It is not good practice to have Fundraising events or other Events requiring an entrance fee too close together as all will “suffer” from the division of loyalties. There are 3(three) Standing Committees and 6(six) Task Groups. Standing Committees Fabric:Convenor:- Alistair McFarlane, Secretary:- May Nisbet, Members:- Charles Burns, Hedley Connell, Jim Ferguson (Health and Safety), Jim Forsyth, Scott Hamilton, Charles Hogg, Ian McAllister, Bill Nisbet (Health and Hygiene), Janet Stewart ( Treasurer), David Young.

SMOKING IN CHURCH GROUNDS Smokers are asked not to stand at the door of the church or halls while smoking so that others do not have to pass through smoke when entering or leaving the buildings. Thank you.

THE NEW KID IN TOWN – KIERAN WARDROP – OUR YOUTH WORKER Hi, I’m Kieran; I’m 20 and the new youth worker for Cambuslang Parish Church. I’ve been really enjoying getting to know the young people within the church family over the past few weeks and learning more about the church.

Question and Answer with Kieran: Where do you live, tell us about your life there? I’m from Ayrshire and have spent the last 6 years living in Prestwick with my family (Mum, Dad and little sister, Erin who is 16). I grew up in and around Prestwick, making many friends and being part of a very close, loving and welcoming church family.

So if you live in Prestwick what are you doing in Cambuslang? That’s a very good question! I’m currently studying at Strathclyde University, just gone into 3rd year of a Community Education degree. So this was never the plan, but it was clearly God’s plan for me. That’s someone I’m not going to argue with!

So, you are at University, what else do you get up to? Over the summer months I’m quite often out in the middle of nowhere. I do a little sessional work for local authorities in Ayrshire doing youth and outdoor work for the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme. I’ll often be out leading or assessing expeditions in Ayrshire, Dumfriesshire, Lanarkshire and on the Isle of Arran.

What do you do in your free time? If I’m not out on the hills I’ll probably be playing music or socialising with my friends. I am very blessed with the family and friends that surround me, so I like to try spend as much time with them as I can.

You’ve talked about playing music, tell us more about that? I grew up loving music, it was one of the very few things I was good at in school. I play guitar and piano, but like to experiment with other instruments too when time allows. I’ve been fortunate enough to be involved in a few worship bands over the past few years, sharing and spreading the good news of Jesus to young people around Ayrshire.

What will you be doing here at Cambuslang? If you keep in tune with this magazine and the church notices you should see what is going to be happening for young people in and around Cambuslang Parish Church. If you would like any more information or would just like a good chat please feel free to get in touch: [email protected]. I look forward to getting to you all.

Our thoughts for Tom Dickie – 1923 - 1913 As a congregation we were saddened by the sudden death of Tom Dickie. Tom was a much loved figure in our congregation and in the wider community of Cambuslang. Tom died just a few weeks after his 90th birthday - typically for Tom, not many people knew about this, although Margaret had been spotted in Cambuslang doing a spot of secret cake shopping. Tom was ordained as an elder in 1952, and although he had stepped down as a member of Kirk Session just a few years ago, his call to be an elder remained very cute. As we give thanks to God for Tom, we also remember his wife Margaret and his brother George in our prayers.

SUMMER OUTING The summer outing for the 75s and over took place on 12th September and was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. A coach load of folk left the church in good spirits in the early afternoon bound for Moffat . Although the weather was a little dull but dry, the beautiful countryside en route and the chatter on the bus made the journey very enjoyable. On arriving in Moffat the rain started but this didn’t dampen the spirits, because awaiting us at the Woollen Mill was a delicious afternoon tea of sandwiches, scones, huge mouth watering cupcakes and tea or coffee. This was followed by some retail therapy for those who were able. On the way home we brightened up a now very wet afternoon with a singsong led by our resident choir mistress Margaret Black. A good day was had by all and was it worthwhile? Yes, because it is good for our senior members to meet together, laugh and enjoy the company of others. The Pastoral Team has a remit to look after the senior members of our congregation. Holding events like this and encouraging them to take part is one way of repaying them for all the years they have been involved in the church and letting them know that they are still involved in our church.

HARARE Harare £500 was sent in September to the City Presbyterian Church Children’s Club to be used to send food parcels to the most impoverished families in their care. As the minister explained at the Communion Service, circumstances are changing in Harare. Any significant changes will be discussed and brought to your attention. Alice Chikomo has serious health problems and would welcome your prayers. Ada McDonald

Cambuslang Division Guides All Cambuslang units Rainbows, Brownies & Guides started back at beginning of September, looking forward to another fun packed session. Cambuslang Guides are having a joint Indoor Holiday to Gowanpark Guide Centre at Crossford at the beginning of November there will be 18 girls and 4 leaders on this weekend trip. 2 Guides from 3rdCambuslang Guides are going on the Baden Powel Adventure on 12th September. Hope all goes well and they enjoy themselves. 2014 is “The Big Brownie Birthday” - 100 years of Brownies. Who would believe it! There are lots of activities planned, including “The Big Brownie Birthday Bash” at Netherurd in Peeblesshire in May 2014, I’m sure some of our Brownies will be involved in that.

Our County, West Lanarkshire are taking over the Science Centre for an

evening.

THE GIRLS’ BRIGADE 2NDCambuslang Company In May of this year we ended our session with our Annual Display and Prize giving and the following girls gained their awards.

Explorer Junior Brigader Explorer Junior Brigader Brigader

Best Girl - Carrie Marks Best Girl - Katie Stewart Best Girl - Rebecca Kean Achievement Award - Millie Craig Achievement Award - Lucy Gardner Achievement Award - Holly Armstrong Leadership Training 1 - Elaine Schwab

Many thanks to everyone for their help and support over the year and making 2013 such a success. Now a little about what we hope to achieve next session. As next year is the Commonwealth Games and Girls' Brigade Scotland have decided that we should do something towards this. We have a Focus geared towards a special badge for the Games which all four Organisations have taken part in designing. Girls' Brigade have four sections in our badge work, Spiritual, Service, Education and Physical, so we will be very busy covering all of these.

This badge will be awarded to girls completing their badge work and attending joint Parades with the other Organisations. I hope to be in a position to report to you regularly as to how they are progressing.

Many thanks for your help. Janette Fearnley (Captain)

The 150th Glasgow Scout Group

The 150th Glasgow Scout Group meets in the Kirkhill Buildings on Cairns Road. We have boys and girls in all 4 sections and our leaders have a wide and varied range of skills. Beavers are our youngest and possibly our most enthusiastic members.. They meet on Thursdays from 6pm till 7pm. Their motto is “Fun and Friends”, lots of fun every week and during outings and camps. Recent visits have been to a golf driving range, the Museum of Flight, Cathkin Braes and Cambuslang Park. Cubs meet on Thursdays 7pm till 8pm. They have been involved in local events including singing for elderly residents in a care home and helping with maintenance in Cambuslang Park. Our last trip to Lochgoilhead allowed the Cubs to experience watersports, outdoor climbing and hillwalking. Scouts meet on Friday from 7pm till 9pm. They enjoy a wide range of games from the fast and furious, to the more thoughtful and skilful. Many of our activities hone skills that are essential at camp, such as cooking and first aid and, hopefully with no connection between the two.. They have worked with “Friends of Cambuslang Park”, planted bulbs in November by torchlight, built bird boxes, attended the International Jamboree at Auchengillan., taken part in power boating, climbing and archery. Most recently they have had a guided tour of the BBC, read the news from an auto cue and performed a short play. Explorers meet on Friday 7pm till 9pm Many assist in the younger sections. Recently a number took part in skiing lessons and gained their skiers badge. Hill walking and hostelling encourage training for the Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme. Their quiz team came second in a recent event run by the local Rotary Club for youth organisations. One of our Explorers was in America this summer to complete his Explorers Belt Challenge Read the account of his adventure in next month’s magazine.

229 BOYS BRIGADE COMPANY Summer Camp, Whithaugh Park Ten members of the 229th BB Company Section attended a summer camp to Whithaugh Park in the borders. This week end coincided for the 2nd year in a row with the Junior section camp at the same venue. The Junior section, have been going there for a few years now as part of their District camp. The 2 cabins we had were very comfortable, if a bit basic, but very well equipped; one with a kitchen, dining area, bedroom and shower room; the other mostly with bedrooms, toilet and shower room. There was the usual Friday night excitement being away from home, – laughing and carrying on into the wee small hours, let’s see who can talk the longest, who can we toothpaste during the night, let’s sleep in, in the morning etc. Boys will be boys! There was the other ritual, for new members to Company section camp, an initiation. This year, it was being tied to a tree and then see how long it takes to escape. The knots weren’t very good and they escaped in 2 minutes, only to be tied up again and again until everyone got bored. The boys took part in mountain biking, archery and fencing as part of their 6 hours of organised events, with all safety equipment and instruction provided by the centre. We also took part in orienteering, football, swimming and an assault course as part of the self-led events. We were blessed with good weather during the whole week-end; in fact it was too warm on the Sunday to take part in the fencing which was indoors in the sports hall. No cooking this year, no cold lumpy potatoes and burnt sausage’s with beans, our lunches and dinners were made for us, (HEAVEN). We had a bonfire on the Saturday night which is always good fun and welcome on a cool night. We finished off the week end on the Sunday with a trip to McDonalds on the way home, tired but happy.

Lt David Young, Officer in Charge

Now a “BIG” Congratulation to Mrs Margaret Reed, who celebrated her 98th Birthday on 16th September.

WALKING GROUP’S HIKE September 2013, Glendevon – (or ‘a bridge too far’) Ten walkers gathered at CPC, amidst some rain and set off for what turned out to be a mystery tour, crossing both Kincardine bridges in the space of 5 minutes! We encountered other structures during our walk. We had passed Cumbernauld when the sun came out, and we were to benefit from the weather during the walk, only seeing proper rain when we reached our refreshment stop in Dollar. After parking the cars, we set off to traverse the glen towards Castle Campbell, we went through a few gates, climbed up a steep gorge, crossed a wooden bridge and walked over a rough hewn path, climbing quickly with the river on our left and falling below us. We had our tea break at the gates of Castle Campbell, some of the party walked higher up to get a better view down the Dollar Glen. We continued upwards, and met a couple of hill-walkers who kept us on the correct path to Glenquey reservoir. We had a great view at the top of the ascent, you could see Grangemouth, Longannet power station, the Firth of Forth and the 2 Kincardine bridges. Carrying along the path, we went thru a half round construction with a hinged gate, a member of the party proclaimed ‘this is a kissing gate’ (a gate which allows humans thru but not livestock). Later on, we climbed another structure, an inverted V shaped ladder over a high fence (we thought it was a deer gate?!)

Anyway, we decided to have lunch on the far side of the Glenquey reservoir, but we had to traverse the overflow slipway first and then walk along the sloping side of the dam. The reservoir was quite low, the boat house sitting isolated above the water line. We picked a boulder to sit on and had lunch. It was here we felt a few spots of rain, but it didn’t come to anything. Rings in the water indicated the presence of fish; apparently it’s stocked with brown trout. One of the party donned his umbrella hat, he looked like he’d just come off the paddy field. We walked along the far side of the reservoir and crossed the small river, before climbing the aforementioned fence. We found ourselves back on the same path as we had come along before, and we followed this back to the castle. Here, we decided to follow the road back into town, and not traverse down the steep path back into the Dollar Glen. On returning to the cars, we discarded the jackets we had donned for we had a few small showers of rain, and went to have our usual refreshments before setting off for home.

Cambuslang Parish Church Grounds Have you noticed over the past few months the changes made to the appearance of the grounds surrounding the church building’s. Several green fingered members of the church have been very busy. The addition of the new flower tubs and baskets attached to the railings have brightened up and improved the surrounds. It is also nice to see that they have been allowed to remain for all to enjoy and not vandalised and have improved the outlook of our little corner of Cambuslang. Many thanks to those who contributed to these additions and for the upkeep that is required. Now, if there is anyone else out there who has green fingers and has an hour or two to spare, there are other areas of the church grounds that could do with your help. Please contact the church office to offer you help. Many thanks.

Children’s Section

NOW HAVE A GUESS My life can be measured in hours. I serve by being devoured. Thin I am fast, thick I am slow and wind is my foe. Can you guess who or what I am.

Can you colour me in please? Joseph had a colourful robe. How colourful can you make him?

We have had a busy month since our last update – here are just some of our highlights…

Celebration On Saturday evening we held our annual Reachout Celebration – aptly called ‘Catch up with Reachout’. The weather was very kind to us and we had some glorious autumn sunshine – perfect for meeting up in the park with the young folk before the Celebration started. There was face painting and a treasure hunt, which resulted in lots of hungry children ready for their hotdogs! The evening was a great success and we want to thank everyone who came along and supported us – we hope you had as much fun as we all did! Thanks too to absent friends who sent their best wishes to us. We will have some photos on our Facebook page soon – watch this space!

Spittal Primary School’s Official Opening Staff and pupils at Spittal Primary moved into their new building in December last year and have been enjoying their new space since. On 9th September the school was officially opened by MSP Mike Russell. When Stacy, Ross and William Wilson arrived early they found themselves tying balloons together and then displaying them around the school building to brighten it up. It was a great opening ceremony and we want to pass on our very best wishes to the school.

Appeal for volunteers There are currently 9 SU groups in schools in Cambuslang and Rutherglen. Only two of them currently have sufficient leaders to run properly. We urgently need volunteers to run groups in Spittal Primary, James Aiton Primary and Hallside Primary. We also are looking for some extra volunteers for Calderwood primary and someone to lead the group at Cathkin Primary from January. Please pray about this with us.

Andrew Robertson We want to thank Andrew Robertson for his contribution to the work of the Trust during the summer term and summer holidays. Andrew is now off to Edinburgh University to study Astrophysics. Please pray that he will settle in quickly and adjust to life in Edinburgh.
