NEW – CHORAL EVENSONG CHOIR!!
Choral evensong is one of the jewels of Episcopalian worship. We want to introduce opportunities at various times in the year to take part in this type of service. The thing is, we need a good choir to help lead us. I am asking all those who might be interested in such a group to get in touch with me by email at episcopalpriestdornoch@gmail.com and/or to come along to a first meeting and ‘sing’ in St Finnbarr’s Church, Dornoch on Tuesday 19th August at 7pm.

Our Study Group for the Season of Creation (the month of September) this year will be based around material adapted from the Season of Creation Project.
There will be four sessions each lasting a little over an hour, at Anna and James’ house at 11 Ferry Road, Golspie on Wednesday afternoons at 2pm on the following dates:
- 10th Sept – Ocean Depths and Delights (Job 38:1-18; Luke 5:1-11)
- 17th Sept – Wisdom in the Creatures of the Earth (Job 39:1-8, 26-30; Luke 12:22-31)
- 24th Sept – Good News from the Sky (Jeremiah 4:23-28; Psalm 19:1-6; Mark 15.33-39)
- 1st Oct – The Wisdom Behind the World (Proverbs 8:22-31; Colossians 1:15-20)
The sessions revolve around a study of a two or three Bible passages on each occasion from the Wisdom literature in the Hebrew Bible and from the Gospels and will be semi-independent, so all are welcome even if you can’t manage all of them. If you wish any more information, speak to or contact Canon James.
