Unless otherwise noted, all the events shown will be held at Rosyth Methodist Church. You can get directions at this link.
This calendar is mostly for our regular worship and church-focused meetings, plus special meetings of other groups and ecumenical events. However, as explained at this link, our building is in use throughout the week by other groups, and their regular meetings have not been listed here, to make the calendar less cluttered.
For Holy Week 2018, we’ve produced a downloadable poster listing what’s on at our church and the Parish Church in addition to the normal services.
A series of gatherings are being arranged where Christian Aid supporters come together to learn more about the themes that Christian Aid work on, and get small practical examples of how people can give, act and pray year-round.
The keynote speaker at all venues will be Jeanne Kamara, Head of the Christian Aid team in Sierra Leone, who will talk about the diverse nature of CA’s work in that area and explain how the team there dealt with ebola.
The nearest venue to us is St John’s Episcopal Church, Princes Street, Edinburgh, EH2 4BJ where the Gathering on Tuesday 26 February from 10.00am–1.00pm is open to all.

World Day of Prayer is a prayer movement with an annual service held on or near the first Friday in March. This year it is hosted on Friday 1 March by St Margaret’s congregation in Rosyth, at 2.00pm. It is interdenominational and ecumenical; it is for all ages and for men as well as women, despite its roots.
Throughout this service, written for us this year by Christian women of Slovenia, we are invited in this year’s theme to “Come – everything is ready!”
In a story Jesus told about a great dinner the invitations are rejected, and then given to people on the streets. However, there is still room and more invitations are given out until the celebrations can begin.
But we should ask: Who is missing from the table in our communities? How can we include them?
As in the story, all are invited. World Day of Prayer is for everyone. Will you accept our invitation? And who will you invite? A warm welcome awaits everyone.

The Ecumenical Lenten study this year is based on the Oscar and BAFTA winning movie, "The King's Speech".

We start on this evening when we watch the film all the way through, followed by 5 study sessions each Monday through to 8th April. Each session starts at 7.30pm in the Parish Church and finishes around 9.00pm, followed by refreshments. For further information, talk to Alan Taylor.

Bible Month is an opportunity for churches to spend 30 days focused on a single biblical book. This year, Paul’s letter to the Colossians has been selected.
In preparation for this, we are hosting a district training day on Saturday 23 March from 10.30am–3.30pm in Perth Methodist Church. Registration and refreshments are available from 10.00am. Lunch is provided.
Our keynote speaker is Richard Tiplady, Director of Mixed Mode Training for the Scottish Episcopal Church, previously Principal of International Christian College and British Director of European Christian Mission (a church-planting mission agency). His current role includes the development and leadership of a mission-focussed ordination training pathway for the SEC. Richard comments, “A focus on Colossians is timely as we try to work out what it means to live for Christ in Scotland today. What does the Lordship of Christ mean in a diverse, pluralistic context? What does being “alive with Christ” mean, and how then should we live? These are some of the questions which Paul considers in his letter to the Colossian churches.”

Composed when Bach was at the height of his powers, this Passion contains some of his most exquisite and communicative writing for the human voice.
