what do you think?

"‎"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." Martin Luther King, Jr."


How did you respond to the news yesterday that Osama Bin Laden had been killed? I personally felt very uneasy at the jubilation being expressed in the US. Sally has some very penetrating questions to ask here, and Steve also makes some very challenging points here.

what a beautiful day!

It really was the most beautiful day here in Inverness, and we shared in a very memorable day together at Hilton Church. In our morning service, Anna Charis, daughter of Scott and Heather McRoberts was baptised. Jonathan, our youth minister preached an absolute stonking serrmon. Tonight we were all delighted to welcome John MacLeod back to Hilton Church after a lengthy absence, and once again we were so encouraged by what John had to share with us. If you are looking for some inspiration, I can highly recommend going on to the Hilton Church website and having a listen to todays sermons. Outstanding.
