Some losses are hard to carry alone. 💛
If you’re grieving, feeling overwhelmed, or simply missing someone deeply, Thursday Night Light offers a quiet, welcoming space to pause and breathe.
There’s no pressure, no expectations, and no need to have the right words. You can sit quietly, light a candle, enjoy a cuppa, or talk with someone if you’d like to.
Whether your loss is recent or long ago, you are welcome here. You do not need to attend church or have faith to come along - just come as you are.
🕯️ A space for reflection
☕ Warm drinks and gentle company
💬 Supportive people to listen
❤️ Everyone welcome
WHERE: Gardner Memorial Church, Brechin (opposite the library)
WHEN: Every Thursday 7pm-9pm (drop in anytime)
This is our last midweek reflection 😱😱
We hope you have enjoyed these little reflections ❤️
🌱 Midweek Reflection: Patience & Growth
In Mark 4, Jesus uses the simple picture of seeds and growth to remind us that some of the most meaningful things in life take time. A seed doesn’t become a tree overnight it needs to be planted, nurtured, and given time to grow.
In the same way, God is working in our lives, even when we can’t immediately see the results. We often want quick answers, instant change, and immediate growth, but faith teaches us to trust the process and be patient.
🌾 What are you waiting to grow in your life?
Maybe it’s your faith, a relationship, a dream, healing, or a new season. Whatever it is, don’t give up simply because you can’t see the growth yet.
Join us for this midweek reflection as we look at Mark 4 and discover how Jesus’ teaching about seeds encourages us to have patience, trust God, and allow Him to grow something beautiful in His timing.
“The seed sprouts and grows, though he does not know how.” — Mark 4:27
🌱 Keep planting.
🙏 Keep trusting.
⏳ Keep waiting.
❤️ God is still working.

Mr & Mrs Ken Edwards from Canada have been in touch through the Brechin & Farnell Parish Church office to see if anyone in the Brechin and Angus Area knows any of their relatives who might still be in this vicinity?
Their request is with a view to perhaps meeting up towards the end of September this year when they intend to “visit the land of their forefathers”
Ken’s grandfather was Norman Edwards of Montrose and his grandmother Agnes Stewart from Farnell. Agnes’s parents were George and Flora Stewart who lived in cottar houses at Farnell Mains. Agnes was born on 30th August 1905 at the Mains of Farnell. Her father was a “Farm Overseer”. The 1921 Census shows Agnes at the age of 15 years and 10 months, working at Gallery House as a Kitchen Maid. Norman Edwards was born in 1902 in Montrose.
Agnes and Norman married and emigrated to Canada before 1929 where they started a family of their own. Interestingly, a younger brother of Agnes’s, Hugh Campbell Stewart (born 1910 Farnell), also emigrated to Canada to the same area as his sister.
Ken recalls that when he was a child, he visited his great uncle with his grandparents. Norman and Agnes both died in Canada. Agnes in 1990 aged 85 and Norman in 1991 aged 89.
If anyone has any connections or information regarding the Edwards or Stewart families from Montrose or Farnell (We are aware Edwards is a well-known name in Brechin) then please get in touch via the Brechin & Farnell Parish Church Office on 01356 629191 or email office@brechinfarnellchurch.org Alternatively see the Facebook page at @brechinfarnellparishchurch
Please note the Church Office is closed until18th August 2026
Thanks in advance
Jamie Ross. Any connection?
