Evening services. The next St Mungo’s evening service will be Transform at Balerno Parish Church on 21 April. There will not be an evening service on 14 April in order to bless the volunteer worship and tech teams with a break.
On Sunday 21 April, Ollie will be sharing with the church family in both Balerno and Livingston an exciting update on where we are with our review of building options.

Prayers.
Last week marked the beginning of the period of commemoration for 30 years since the 1994 genocide against the Tutsi in Rwanda. Join us as we pray for Rwanda and for our mission partner, Comfort International, as they work in the country. Pray for Christ-centred forgiveness, healing, and reconciliation in communities torn apart by genocide and for believers to fully embrace their identity as God’s beloved. Comfort International have put together this moving and beautiful prayer https://fb.watch/rjxH4NaxkE/.
