Welcome to St Molios Church of Scotland, Shiskine.
Info
We were joined for worship in September by 40 members and friends from
Park Church Ardrossan who were having a short holiday on Arran.
- Sunday Worship is always at 12:00 Noon at St. Molios.
The
Sunday Club meets in church at 12:00 with the rest of the congregation
for worship during term-time is open to children from three +. After
the children’s talk they leave for their activities in the Church Hall
led by an enthusiastic team of leaders. Children occasionally
contribute a song or sketch during an All Age worship.
Services on Sunday are well attended both by our members and visitors who flock to the island every year. The Church of Scotland has adjusted ministry on the island so that since 2005 our parish has been linked not only to Lochranza and Pirnmill, but also to Brodick & Corrie. The arrangement is made possible by the appointment of a fulltime Minister resident in Brodick and a part-time Parish Assistant resident in Shiskine. The Minister and Parish Assistant conduct three services each on a Sunday, ensuring the tradition of morning worship continues. Worship is always at 12:00 noon at St. Molios. Visitors to other churches in the linkage need to consult "The Arran Banner" or the church notice board for times of services which may vary.
