Click on the calendar entry for extra details, if these are available.
Unless otherwise noted, all the events shown will be held at Rosyth Methodist Church. You can get directions at this link.
This calendar is mostly for our regular worship and church-focused meetings, plus special meetings of other groups. However, as explained at this link, our building is in use throughout the week by other groups, and their regular meetings have not been listed here, to make the calendar less cluttered.
For Holy Week 2018, we’ve produced a downloadable poster listing what’s on at our church and the Parish Church in addition to the normal services.

This is week 2. The Shack is an American Christian film which debuted on 3 March 2017, grossing $96M worldwide. It's about a family where the father comes from an abusive situation at home, but marries into a very fulfilling relationship, with 3 young children. During a camping trip, a child is abducted and is believed to have been murdered. The rest of the film is about the healing process - but let me not give too much away!
