It may have been raining
everywhere else but the rain stayed away from
Crossraguel Abbey
as Maybole gala week got off to a great start with an ecumenical
service attended by members of all Maybole churches. The event was
organised by Maybole Council of Churches and clergy who led parts of
the service were Fr Stephen McGrattan, Rev David Jones, Rev Dave
Whiteman, and Rev Julia Mason. Hymns were introduced by Josephine
Mill, Margaret McCulloch, Ann McPike and Donna McKay. The music was
provided by Kevin McDermott, Kenneth Hutchison and Robert McIlroy.
William McJannet and Katy Carlyle, who will be crowned the new King
and Queen of Carrick this Saturday, attended the service and were
introduced by Rev Whiteman. Maybole Council of Churches would like
to thank Historic Scotland, Maybole Community Association, the
musicians, local police and other officials for their help and
support in organising the service. |
