We are most appreciative of all the support we receive from members and friends of our congregation and parish,
especially at this very difficult time.
Dunlop is a small, friendly village in rural Ayrshire.
We are United with Caldwell, in Uplawmoor, East Renfrewshire as Caldwell and Dunlop Parish Church of Scotland.
We in Dunlop Kirk feel that our church is at the heart of the community.
We have a long and proud history of loving and serving the people of our parish, which also includes the communities of Burnhouse, Lugton, Newmill and the Halket.
Continue to pray - for our communities - people of all ages.
For all those whose lives and occupations are disrupted, and who are struggling with financial uncertainty.
For those who are working to maintain supply chains, and essential services. For our civic and religious leaders.
For all those who work in healthcare - in whatever capacity.
For researchers and scientists who are continuing to create treatments and vaccines.
Keep caring for each other, as I know you are.
Please pass on my words here to anyone you know is not on-line.
Peace, and hope, and love be with you all,
Alison

Minister.
