Care Homes Ministry – The spiritual care of the elderly is very important. A group of people from the church attend a monthly service at Buchties care home, Barnhill. We bring them the word of God, pray with them and find it a blessing to preach the good news of the gospel to them. We are very privileged to have the support of the management team there.

Women’s Prayer Group

Prayer groupIf you’re free please come and join us on a Tuesday at 10.30am in Panmurefield Baptist Centre as we share our prayer needs for the world, our community, our church, our family and friends. Tea and coffee served at the start.

Men’s Prayer Breakfast – Each Saturday morning, men from the church family get together for a valuable time of prayer and fellowship. The meetings (in the church lounge), start at 8:30am with tea and toast and time for a chat. This is followed by a time of prayer. This ministry is a great encouragement to all who attend and it is marvelous to look back and see how the Lord has already answered many of the prayers offered up at these meetings. The meetings are usually finished by 9:30am.

Mission Matters – The church has a group to increase awareness and generate interest in all aspects of World mission within the church fellowship.

All of our paid employees and volunteers have undertaken a PVG Disclosure check.
