Our Sunday morning service is resuming from 20th September for those who would like to gather in person. We are following guidelines set out by the Scottish Government so Church will look a little different and be a little shorter in length but we're excited to welcome you back or to meet you for the first time. Please read the information below before attending to ensure everything runs smoothly.
We know most people will still be joining us online so we’re thankful that we can continue to stream our services and provide extras for those at home. No matter how you are planning to join us, we pray that you will experience God's love and feel at home at Woodhill.
