and we've missed it since it closed at the start of the pandemic.
The local congregation had some essential works carried out earlier in the year
so that the Scout Group could use the building again,
but we still had to do more to make it a warm and pleasant place for different groups to use.
All that work is now finished, but it does need a good clean and tidy before it
reopens for the Scout Group on 23rd August.
All assistance will be very welcome, whether that's a quick visit to wash down surfaces or staying longer to mop floors.
The funeral service for the late Robert Clow, took place in Dunlop Kirk at 1pm on Friday, 29th July 2022.

OPEN SUNDAY AFTERNOONS
The church will be open every Sunday afternoon from 2pm – 4pm from 3rd July 2022 until the 11th September. If you would like to spend some time in a peaceful building or to have a closer look at the beautiful stained glass windows, please come and visit the church.
The Clandeboye’s Hall, alongside the church, is an ‘A’ listed building, which was built in 1641 and was one of the first free schools in Scotland. Behind the Clandeboyes is the Hans Hamilton Tomb and the marble figures of the former minister and his wife have now been reinstated.
Greeting cards and a booklet about the wonderful stained glass are on sale.
If you are out for a walk please call in - you will be very welcome and, as always in Dunlop, tea, coffee and biscuits will be available.
Please note Tuesday coffee in the Village Hall will be close for the summer months.
Dunlop and Caldwell, Exploring the Bible, will also stop for summer.
Please contact Rev Alison McBrier or Session Clerk, Margo McMurdo (contact page), if you have any questions.

We are most appreciative of all the support we receive from members and friends of our congregation and parish,
especially at this very difficult time.
Dunlop is a small, friendly village in rural Ayrshire.
We in Dunlop Parish Church of Scotland feel that our church is at the heart of the community.
We have a long and proud history of loving and serving the people of our parish, which also includes the communities of Burnhouse, Lugton, Newmill and the Halket.
Continue to pray - for our communities - people of all ages.
For all those whose lives and occupations are disrupted, and who are struggling with financial uncertainty.
For those who are working to maintain supply chains, and essential services. For our civic and religious leaders.
For all those who work in healthcare - in whatever capacity.
For researchers and scientists who are continuing to create treatments and vaccines.
Keep caring for each other, as I know you are.
Please pass on my words here to anyone you know is not on-line.
Peace, and hope, and love be with you all,
Alison
