“We would like to bring to your attention some new exciting community news. City Church Laurencekirk is launching a new service to the community. We aim to make two new initiatives available to the community to help those that have found themselves in tough times.

“We understand that money can be tight. If you find yourself struggling to pay for food, toiletries and essential household items, we’d love to help…

“We recognise as a church that it’s important not only to provide a worship service on a Sunday, as we meet at 10am at Mearns Academy. However we believe it’s of paramount importance that we seek to serve the community by meeting needs and generally connecting with the community in other meaningful ways. It’s more than a foodbank as we offer additional help, such as our debt help service, CAP, a nationally recognised charity that has helped hundreds of people across the UK to become debt free.

“Please feel free to contact us for more information. Or come along on a Sunday morning 9.45am or 11.30am if you’d benefit from some storehouse supplies.”
