Hello and a warm welcome to our Church Website.  
 
Our congregation here in Dalbeattie & Kirkgunzeon Parish Church are a very welcoming congregation, visitors to our services are always made very welcome.
 We meet every Sunday for Worship at 11.00am and just enjoy friendship and fellowship within God’s House.  Our services are quite traditional with hymns both new and old and quiet time for prayer and reflection.   We are open to new ways of Worship too.
 Our Organist is excellent at teaching us different hymns to sing, it may take us time but with practise we get there. Sadly we no longer have a choir, we would like and welcome anyone who likes to sing and perhaps maybe get our choir going again.
 During the cold winter months we meet in the Church Centre to keep us warm and comfortable and worship is always enjoyed there too, followed by fellowship over tea and coffee
 As we continue on our journey of faith we celebrate all the different seasons within the church year, we have just celebrated Harvest, and are now journeying on to Remembrance, Holy Communion and Advent.
 Our Faith is very important to us and we welcome everyone who wishes to share their own faith too.
 Please come and meet us all in person and journey with us and encourage us as we travel together.
 All are welcome here.
 
Blessing to all
Fiona A Wilson, Minister.
Rev Fiona Wilson and Richard Wilson
