After an amazing morning service, we released our 'Blueprint' document.
Coming off the back of our month of fasting and prayer, and the 'Belonging' course, our 'Blueprint' outlines what we see as our vision for the future.
As a part of this vision we also outline the needs of the fellowship and 'job' opportunities as we press forward.

anytime within the next two weeks. There will
be an AGM in three weeks where we will
begin to discuss the practicalities of pressing
forward into all the new ministries.

Archery Afternoon
15th August 2021
A very different day from the previous archery day. Instead of sweltering heat we hid beneath the tress while a rain shower passed over, and spent much time swotting midges. The thirteen people who braved the elements shot some good arrows between them. Sylvia and Kay came equal with a very respectable 57, and Andy narrowly beat Nigel by only two points.
Archery Afternoon
25th July 2021
On a day that saw temperatures soar to a sweltering 34 deg in the sun the fellowship enjoyed another great afternoon with a relaxing picnic. After sheltering under the trees for shade the arrows took flight. Everyone did really well, with Jane taking a strong lead for the ladies and Dan for the men. Young Daniel came in with a very respectable 45. Thanks to everyone for making it another great afternoon
Archery Afternoon
Sunday 11th July 2021
Once again after our morning church service, a number of folks got together for a picnic and to shoot a few arrows. Although we initially had a few drops of rain, it didn't last more than a few minutes, and the afternoon brightened to give us some great weather. Everyone did really well.
Kris and Paul finished the day on 115 each. Kat led the ladies, but we have to mention Millie Rose who shot some great arrows. Thank you to everyone for making it a great afternoon.
Sunday 18th July
After Church Walk
Join Kris and Josie this week after church as they take us on a short walk, before arriving back at the Misty for ice cream.

We pray every blessing over them as they step forward into their new life together.
ARCHERY DAYS ARE BACK AGAIN !
Sunday 5th July 2021
After a long winter's and Covid break, it was great to once again be able to get together to have fun and shoot a few arrows. It was a hard fought contest with Robert taking the lead in the men's, and Tanya making a last minute leap forward in points with two gold's in the final round. Well done everyone who took part!

exciting new course available
'BELONGING'
What it means to belong to a church, find friendships, find your place in church, and discover how you can best serve your Saviour.
We all want to belong to something meaningful, something that reflects very much who we are, and what we believe. But what does it mean to belong? Belonging is an essential human need that God has placed in each one of us. We can all find a sense of belonging in relationships and in family, but its within the fellowship of believers that true belonging is meant to flourish. Because its as a born again believer we can finally find our true potential and destiny in Christ. The Church is the place where we were always meant to belong. Join us on our journey as we discover what it means to belong to a church, how we find true friendships, find your place in church, and discover how you can best serve your saviour
Join us in Home Group as we study and discuss the various subjects

Foundations of Grace
Join us as we study the importance of understanding, and living by Grace. Week five 'Fear' is now available.
We studied 'fear' last week and it was such a deep subject, rather than rush through, we have extended this to this week.
Living Advent Windows
Dunvegan Primary School organised a 'Living Advent Window'. Homes all around the Dunvegan area decorated their windows and lit them up at 6pm. Every night of advent saw a different home light up their themed window.
Dunvegan Christian Fellowship had the Christmas Eve window.
So on the 24th at 6pm as people gathered around the window (socially distanced and masked of course). We were treated to a wonderful nativity presentation.
With carols sung by the Dunvegan Primary School Children, and the presentation by Josie, Nikki, and Brian.
A taster of the night can be seen on this short video.
Decembers evening services
After many months only meeting for worship online, or outdoors, it was with excitement we finally began meeting together physically on Sunday Evenings for the first time in December.
Although unable to sing and constrained by the Covid regulations, we still found a wonderful depth of worship in the services.
There have been some great times of testimony, some amazing pieces of writing, thoughts, scriptures and moments of real Godly revelation.
Whilst the services have been different from what we were used to, we have not lost the intimate sense of His presence amongst us as we gathered together in His name. Whilst some churches and fellowships have reported decreasing numbers in the congregation, we have not experienced this. We have been close to maximum seating numbers most weeks. Thank you to everyone for your continued support as we press forward in our work in Dunvegan.
We look forward to seeing you in January.
Book your seats early!

Archery afternoon
30th Aug 2020
This weeks archery afternoon saw 'Bullseye Brian' and our usual winning players being beaten by 'Hawkeye' newcomer Pete. The weather behaved itself, except the dropping of the wind which encouraged the midges for a short while.
All in all another enjoyable day shooting a few arrows and catching up socially, and having a great time of fellowship.
