Book Group

The St Saviour’s Book Group began at the end of 2002. When studying a book the list will be published in advance together with the dates o­n which the books will be discussed. The idea is that people will have read the books before coming to the Club. We also arrange outings to éArts venues during the year, which you may wish to attend. The Book Group is open to friends from other churches and local community - you don’t have to be a member of St Saviour’s to participate.

Young Church

The aim of the Young Church is to nurture and educate young people in all aspects of the Christian Faith. St Saviour’s Young Church is for children of primary school age. We meet at 10am each Sunday during the school term in the church hall and follow a programme of activities which is based o­n the bible readings that are being read in church o­n that day. For younger children, a crèche is provided, also in the church hall.

The children join the congregation in time to share the peace and communion. They either sit at the front or with their own families. From time to time, particularly at festivals, worship in church is for everyone and the Young Church and Crèche meet with everyone else for the 10 o’clock service. Many members of the Young Church help lead the worship by acting as readers and servers.

We are very flexible and recognise that everyone is an individual and anyone who would be happier to remain in the main church with whoever has brought them to church is welcome to do that too.

Burns Supper

We held a joint Burns Supper in Stirling with Holy Trinity and St. Mary’s, Dunblane. It was a pleasure to welcome a group visiting from the Diocese of Meath and Kildare, including Bishop Richard and our own Bishop David.
