Coronavirus – All Section Activities Suspended

The staff of the 167th have been carefully monitoring the outbreak of the Coronavirus across the UK and keeping up to date with advice issued by UK Government and other relevant authorities.

Following new Government advice issued today that everyone should stop non-essential contact with others and stop all unnecessary travel, it has been concluded that all BB weekly meetings/activities, events and trips should be immediately suspended. This takes effect as of Monday 16th March 2020 at 21:00.

As such there will be no further BB activities until further notice. Unfortunately this includes our planned holiday to Kirkham.

Parents of boys scheduled to attend Kirkham are requested to come to the church between 19:30 and 20:00 on Wednesday 18th March to receive a full refund.

Please, stay safe.

Regards,
Staff of 167th Glasgow

Boys’ Brigade and Girl Guiding Gift Service

The Boys’ Brigade and Girl Guiding have been thinking about all the poor children and families in our area who are struggling and with Christmas fast approaching we decided to offer our hand of friendship hence the idea of a Gift Service. The Service will be held on Tuesday 5th December at 7pm in the Hartlaw buildings of the church.

All the organisations will contribute in different ways i.e. donate one nights collections, decorate and fill boxes as part of badge work and we wondered if the congregation would like to take part, we would be grateful if you could donate something from the list below.

All donations will stay in our area

We have contacted Local food Banks and Children’s First to come along to our Gift Service to receive our gifts.
