Presbuyterian Church

The uncomfortable voice of the church. Challenging Status Quo.

We're in talks with the education authorities about using our churches as exam halls for AQE, GCSE and A-levels since you can't catch the COVID in churches. #COVID19ireland #CovidUK #niexecutive

We are incredibly excited about our ‘On These Steps’ event taking place this Friday when we will celebrate the high point of Irish division and the proud moment we welcomed the fledgling N.I. parliament into our very own Union Theological College.
[nb. This is private event]

The Rev Trevor Gribben, representing Presbyterians said today: "It is of course regrettable and disappointing that over these next few weeks our congregations will no longer be physically gathering for worship."

The virtual church offering plate is open 24/7.

@lymewoods You sure?

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

We want to reiterate that you cannot catch the COVID in churches. That's why we've been welcoming the elderly all through lockdown.

@rookieminister @pciassembly Schloer. Christian wine.

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

@rookieminister @pciassembly Tis the devil's brew

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

@rookieminister @pciassembly And leave their corona at home

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

Imagine a church that led by example. That closed it's doors FIRST - not forcibly, because it cared most for the people it served. The community. Imagine that.

(It would also be bankrupt - we're just imagining of course)

@rookieminister @pciassembly Set an example, sonny

Covid outbreak in Free Presbyterian church. The only reasonable cause of this has to be that Catholics have secretly been attending services.

@PastordaveDave Quite! Imagine other people seeing this and using it. Terrible business indeed.

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

@PastordaveDave Excellent work, especially the copyright notice. We don't want the Methodists copying our ideas.

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

Special thanks to the ‘powers that be’ in Church House. We can work safely in our bubble. Well we could until we got furloughed. This account is administered by a bot now. Well by ‘bot’ I mean, ‘volunteer’. Well by volunteer I mean, ‘my wife’. Well I have final say of course. So.

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

We are little insulted about being put last on the list of churches, two behind the Methodists!
But anyway. Thankfully the other churches have caught up. Many of our members have being wearing masks to church for a long time.

@hannamanor Ah yes! It's never about u, it's about the establishment!

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

It was proposed today that Portglenone First, Second and Third should amalgamate. Some buildings would close. Third first, first second but not second. Second would go forth.
But what should the new church be called?

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

@hannamanor Witch spelling?

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

@revrobin43 Yes. I seem to remember it was actually a ranking based on the quality of the sermons. 😉 Only kidding. It was a bake off - based on the quality of the tray bakes!

[Presbuyterian Church @pciassembled]

I think we can shed some light on this. [No pun intended] Unfortunately Presbyterians had to discontinue the use of candles in 1789. There was no longer a budget for it due to continually poor United Appeal collections.

[William Ennis @WJProgressive]

Okay I've a wee theological question if you all promise not to fall out over it. Why do Christians who practice Catholicism light a candle when they say a prayer but not Christians who practice the protestant faith?

I mean it now... be nice.
