Kirkwall Salvation Army Church & Community Centre

Mind on that things are a peedie bit different at Kirkwall Salvation Army the morn! We have our Messy Kirk at 11am, with a bit of a World Cup theme (but don’t worry if you’re not a football fan!), and then it’s our afternoon worship at 4.30pm. We’d love to see you!

We get a lot of visitors to our islands over the summer months and it’s always nice when passengers from the cruise liners seek us out. Today it was lovely to meet Colonels Jeff and Dorothy Smith and Majors Phil and Gail Aho, four Salvation Army leaders from the USA who came to say hello!

Shapinsay, we’re so excited about this at the end of the month! As part of our Kirkwall SA on Tour initiative, we’ll be having our afternoon worship in the community centre at 3.30pm on Sunday 28 June. We’d love to see you there. Please help us spread the word!

A week tomorrow (11am-1pm, Sunday 14 June) it’ll be Messy Kirk at Kirkwall Salvation Army - and we’d love to see you there! Here are some photos from the last Messy Kirk - it’s crafts, activities, a Bible story, lunch, singing, Lego and more! And for our regular weekly congregation, it’s a half-hour later start the morning after Scotland’s 2am opening game. Don’t say we never give you anything! 😉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Kirkwall Salvation Army On Tour is back - and this time we’re going overseas! Over the past couple of summers, we’ve taken our afternoon worship service ‘on the road’ once a month. It’s been awesome getting out and meeting folks across Orkney. This year we’re off to Dounby, the Hope and Shapinsay ⛴️ The details are below, but let us know if you have any questions. We’re looking forward to connecting with you this summer!

If you’re wondering which Sunday might be a good time to try out a service at Kirkwall Salvation Army, we reckon it might just be this coming Sunday! We have a crackin’ day planned: in our 10.30am worship we’ll be marking Volunteer Sunday, as we thank the wonderful volunteers who make so much of what we do possible, and then at 4.30pm it’s Café Church, when we’ll look at Christian themes from Charlie Mackesy’s best-selling ‘Always Remember’ book. We’d love to see you on Sunday!

We LOVE Messy Kirk at Kirkwall Salvation Army - and the next one is on Sunday 14 June, from 11am to 1pm! Crafts, games, singing, a Bible story, Lego, a light lunch and more! It’s awesome - and it doesn’t cost anything. Come and give it a go! (Bairns need adults with them, but they’ll love it too!) ❤️
