As many villagers will know, parts of Pencaitland Parish Church are in a parlous state. In an effort to address the problems before they get any worse members of the church, along with Minister David Torrance, have launched a programme of events to help to raise £70,000 to make the building wind and watertight before the onset of winter.
The great news is that, as of the 1st October 2011 the appeal has raised £47,000 towards the target.
A number of local events are planned over the coming months to boost the funds raised by the appeal. They are listed below in date order and further details, including ticket availability, will be posted on the church’s new website.
Meantime, if you want to know more about how you can help save this historically important building take a look at the appeal pamphlet [PDF].
