Harvest 2009


Harvest was early in KH this year, too early for the produce from the Allotment, however this Saturday (24th October) we are looking towards a different kind of Harvest.


KH has held a Gift Day over the last few years where we look to Gifts from within and without.

This is our opportunity for donations to be made specifically towards the upkeep of our building and its purpose within the West End. It always seems best that we should make it a social occasion as well

We are having various stalls of Charity Christmas Cards and of course our very own Fairtrade Stall (Thank You Pat!). There will be Home Baking, Coffee and Tea etc, All musically accompanied by Anna on the Piano, (playing favourite requests if we're lucky) Also a Play area for the young ones. This year the time is from 10:30 until 13:00Hrs. A most pleasant way to spend a Saturday Morning.


Then-------

In the evening starting at 19:30hrs, we welcome Cathures: " a link between the past and the present of Glasgow and a fitting name for a choir who rehearse in the city and perform music of various styles and periods"

This talented choir's Concert titled 'New Worlds' brings us a feast of choral music inspired by the Americas including 17th. Century Mexican and Peruvian polyphany and spirituals.

Admission Free - Donations more than welcome.


Both events are in the Hall, enter from Observatory Road.

The snow held off this morning and the Contractors were hopeful of taking down 4 'flights' of scaffold before Christmas. however it was deemed too dangerous for that this morning. 'What about the weather vane?' I asked. 'Well we;ll see how it is the afternoon and we've got a back-up with the Steeplejacks if necessary' said Hunter & Clark. Off I went on errands and on my return driving along Queen Margaret Drive I noticed that the scaffold around Oran Mor had been taken down and then I noticed a 'High -vis' figure on top of our Fleche which clothed in its scaffold looks a bit like a pineapple over the roof tops of Grosvenor Terrace. Once it was safe to do so, I of course took photos of Archie and Craig tackling the re-installation of our very own 'Chanticleer' All this was of course whilst the snow was coming down again. Hard! However the Task was successfully accomplished. Thank You both, very much. It is much appreciated by all of us at ...

Re-Dedication Service

The clean-up team have been in this week! Many thanks to them---they know who they are! The Sanctuary is looking much cleaner and shinier now. Final clean-up on Friday! We are all looking forward to the Service on Saturday which Alastair Cherry will conduct, lots of people have said they are able to come and the weather forecast is favourable. One little word, the Church is still technically a Building Site, So please pay heed to the advice of the Stewards and remain on the permitted side of any roped-off areas. Hard Hats will not be neccessary.

Return from the brink?!

Don't do it! It does seem a little strange, but I think this is the second photo of this very hardworking person "up close and personal" with a window. Although the last time we managed to have the window brought down from on high for her close inspection. Whatever, the gist of all this is; that this particular property owned by the Congregation is now ready for a new tenant. As explained during the 'At-Home Sessions' this will be an extra source of income for the Congregation. A lot of work by a lot of people has gone into achieving this, and cleaning the windows on a glorious Autumn afternoon has been just part of it.
