‘Parenting for Faith Course’, began on May 13th at ACF. This 8-week programme is for parents, grandparents, carers, and all those involved in raising children; for those with a heart to see their kids grow in faith and relationship with God.
Meet at the church each Monday from 7-8:30pm and each session will be video-led, with time for discussion and reflection. Here is a bit more info from their website:
“The goal of the course is to help parents discover that they are perfectly positioned to show their children the reality of a life with God and to empower them to have their own vibrant two-way relationship with him.”

News:
CFINE Emergency Foodbank.
To ease the burden on families in need, some children are provided breakfast and lunch at schools. However with the holidays fast approaching that will change for many, so additional supplies will be required. Local Impact considers it appropriate for us at ACF to help support in these circumstances by collecting for the CFINE Foodbank which will distribute foodstuffs where need is identified. Please consider supporting this initiative by adding a couple of items to your shopping, and placing them in the yellow receptacle at the church entrance.
Foods: Tinned meals (macaroni, mince, desserts etc) rice, pasta, soup, cooking sauce, beans, sugar, cereal, tinned fruit, snacks, biscuits.
Non Foods: Toiletries, toilet rolls, nappies, toys.
Thank you.
Wheelchair: A wheelchair has been kindly donated to the church, and is available to anyone attending ACF who has mobility difficulties. Please speak with one of the duty stewards for assistance.
Please check out our website, www.aberdeencf.com,for news about our church plant, Portlethen Christian Fellowship and continue to pray for that new church.
