A four-week study on Zoom from 7.00–8:15pm, on Tuesdays in Lent: 23 February, 2 March; 9 March; 16 March.

Tenants of the King is a four-part Bible-based Lent study designed to help each of us and our churches consider what the Bible has to say about today’s climate crisis. Each session is interactive and includes video interviews with leading Christian thinkers and insightful Bible commentary.

The study will be led by Jan Benvie, and will help us to reflect on the challenges of a changing climate, building on the motion passed at last year’s General Synod of the SEC setting the target of zero carbon emissions by the church by 2030 (report on the decision at this link).

It is produced by Operation Noah, a Christian charity working with the Church to inspire action on the climate crisis. There is a booklet to go with the course which you can download in PDF format at this link, or printed copies will be sent on request.

If you are interested, or simply want to find out more, please email jbenvie@yahoo.co.uk, including your postal address if you’d like a copy of the booklet.

This year the Study Group will use the book The Prayers of Jesus, a Cover to Cover Lent Study Guide, by Amy Boucher Pye, a US-born devotional writer living in north London. In simple terms, the book is about exploring Jesus’ prayers to His Father as He moved towards the cross, and following His lead in prayer as we enjoy greater intimacy with God.

The six week course starts on Monday 15 February and meets weekly at 7.00pm on Zoom. This is a lively and friendly group with most of the Rosyth churches being represented. To find out more details and how to join the Zoom meetings please contact Alan Taylor.

25 January is not only Burn’s Night, it’s also the day when we celebrate the Conversion of St Paul. Being just a week after a day associated with St Peter and his first service with the faithful of Rome, the period 18–25 January has become linked with the annual Week of Prayer for Christian Unity.

This year we can’t celebrate in the usual way, but there is an opportunity to connect with Christians across the globe by joining in a service organised by churches across Dunfermline. You can watch the link below at a time to suit you.
