From the Manse
If we were responsible citizens, we voted in the
Referendum of 18th September. If we voted “No”, we
are happy with the outcome; if we voted “Yes”, we are
not. So what now?
We need to remember that we belong together in the
same Scotland. We cannot be separated - and even
though we were on opposite sides, we belong together.
We are not defined by which side we were on. We now
must work – and pray - on the same side: work for the
future of Scotland and work with our near neighbours in
England, Wales and Northern Ireland to settle our
relationships.
Blythswood Care have asked us to participate in their
annual Shoebox Appeal and we have agreed. If you wish
to take part, please pick up a leaflet from the table
underneath the pulpit or from the Communion Table in
the Side Area, and bring your Shoebox on Sunday,
October 26th when they will be dedicated. If you can’t
manage that day, the following week, Sunday 2nd
November, will do fine, when you will be invited to leave
your shoebox in the side area.
The Kirk Session has unanimously agreed the
Refurbishment Plans submitted by our architect, Rebecca
Cadie, in response to our Feasibility Study. Indeed, we
are delighted with them. You will find copies of these

I had great news from the office of the General Trustees
on September 17th. The company who bought the
former Old High building, Kilmarnock and District
Independent Funeral Service, had written a letter saying
they “agreed to a reasonable level of public access.” This
caused the Heritage Lottery Fund, to whom we had been
asked to repay £25,230 of a grant made on the building
to write: “We are therefore happy to reduce the amount
payable to £12,615.” Halved!
Thanks, KADIFS! And thanks, General Trustees, for all
your help.

KAY PARK CHURCH FAMILY FOCUS
IRENE AND CHARLES CUTHBERTSON - CHURCH MEMBERS
T
he only way to describe Irene and Charles Cuthbertson is to say that they are
an absolutely fascinating couple with a most interesting story to tell, having
spent most of their life in the Middle East.
Charles was brought up in Kilmarnock, and, after leaving Kilmarnock Academy,
worked for a spell in the post office and then the former Glacier Metal. He also
trained in accountancy, and then spent his working life in the oil industry. His
first posting was in Iraq, where he spent two years followed by spells in Qatar
and Syria. While on leave from Iraq, he was on holiday in Bournemouth where
he met Irene from London, who was working at that time for Barclays Bank. It
was certainly love at first sight, because, three weeks later, the pair became
engaged, and married the following year in St. Andrews Presbyterian Church in
Edgware. After the wedding Charles and Irene set off for Syria, where they
were allocated a house among the other ex-pats. Although there were many
restrictions, they enjoyed a very comfortable lifestyle, and were able to travel
to places such as Damascus and Beirut, and also to Jerusalem, which they
found a very moving experience. While in Syria they attended Christian
services, provided by the company.
After Syria the Cuthbertsons moved to Kuwait, followed by spells in Karachi
and Chittagong, which is now Bangladesh. Their next posting was to Ecuador in South America. During all this time
their four children were born. Their two eldest sons, Alastair and Malcolm, were born in Tripoli in Lebanon, while
the younger children, Angus and Elizabeth, were born back home. Due to the limitations in the education system
abroad, the children spent most of their school years in this country.
On his return from Ecuador in 1977 Charles worked for three years for Clyde Petroleum in Glasgow. There then
followed a three year posting with the West Indies Oil Company in Antigua, [not a bad place to spend some time],
where Charles and Irene were joined by the children during school holidays. On his return to Kilmarnock in 1984,
he set up his own business as a management consultant for new companies, during which time he spent six
months in Lagos in Nigeria. Then in 1990, the couple’s final stint abroad was in Saudi Arabia, where they spent the
next five years. Irene talked about the restrictions imposed, especially on women, such as the strict dress code and
women being denied the right to drive, although I think she sneakily had a shot under the cover of darkness. The
five times daily call to prayer also brought about its own limitations on everyday life. In 1995 Charles and Irene
finally returned home to their lovely home in Waterside which they bought in 1967.
Charles began his religious education at the former West High Church where he attended Sunday School and Boys’
Brigade, and where, also, their four children were baptised. In 2011 Irene was baptised and also confirmed as a
member of the Church of Scotland by David Lacy at the Easter service. The Cuthbertsons decided to come to
Henderson after attending a Remembrance Service conducted by David at the War Memorial.
Their four children live in Essex, Northumberland, Cheshire and Sydney in Australia, and they are the proud
grandparents of nine grandchildren.
Charles volunteers once a week at Citizens’ Advice in Kilmarnock and is also treasurer for the Air Cadets. Irene’s
interests revolve around gardening and embroidery. They both feel very much at home in Kay Park and have
greatly enjoyed several of our pilgrimages.
To say that my afternoon spent in their company was interesting is rather an understatement. The Cuthbertsons’
life together has been an amazing one, and, to someone like myself, who just managed to live for four years as far
away as Irvine, their story is captivating. I have only skimmed the surface here but, I am sure, there is a book
waiting to be written. We look forward to it!

The £50 Challenge ………….
RONNIE HAMILTON
Finance Convenor
This has been a fantastic year of working together, for
each other, supporting one another and at the same
time making money for the church.
me as she handed me a generous cheque, “That was
good fun. We should do it again. Maybe not next year
but certainly another time”
Last year we decided to offer each member £50 and
challenged them to make it grow. We gave out £3600 to
our members. A few people said they didn’t want to
take the £50 but they would save something every
week and put that in as their contribution, and we are
very grateful to them.
A few weeks ago Marilyn Malcolm thought that it might
be a good idea to have a Fashion Show to give people
an opportunity to give some of their time and talents to
raising money for the Challenge—and what a response
she got. People sold tickets, baked, set up tables,
modelled, washed dishes, served teas and cleared up at
the end and over 120 people bought tickets and came
along. The result—over £1000 was raised on that one
night. What a fantastic effort! I am grateful to Marilyn
for suggesting and organising the event.
If you remember, at the time the interest we were
getting for each £50 was 0.25%, so that in a year each
£50 would have gained 12.5pence. Getting anything
more than that back was a gain!
We are holding a Craft Fair on 4th October to round off
the Challenge and give people who have something to
sell a last chance to offer their wares. After that I should

‘GO SERVE’ – 2014
On Saturday, 6th September, 2014 Rene Larmour and I, along with 26 other Guild members
from Guilds within the Irvine and Kilmarnock Presbyterial Council left Kilmarnock at 7.30am
to go to Dundee. The reason for this was the Annual Guild Rally in the Caird Hall.
As usual, this was a very inspiring meeting and after the Welcome from Kay Keith, national
Convener, we proceeded to the Opening Worship by singing Great God of every shining
constellation (CH4: 246).
The Moderator, Rt. Rev. John Chalmers was invited to speak and gave us some of his personal reflections and his
words were inspirational. His youngest son, John-James was injured in Afghanistan and after the meeting was
travelling to London to be with him for the INVICTUS GAMES.
The guest speaker this year was the Rev. Dr. Margaret Fowler who is Scottish but has lived in Jamaica since 1988
serving in several charges and currently in Hope United Church. She is certainly no ordinary minister and is not
afraid to speak out when others remain silent. Margaret is an expert in Human Trafficking and is a member of the
Human Trafficking Task Force with the Ministry of Justice, Jamaica. For her doctorate her focus was on Social
justice and is widely recognised with awards in Jamaica for her work with women. Her address was very
challenging – “How can we help?” “Who needs help?” within a one mile radius of our church?
The DVD has been ordered and we hope to have it for Guild Week in November. Perhaps we could use it as part of
a church service.
There are now 400 men members of the Guild (Nationwide) so numbers are growing and we are looking forward to
starting our new session on Tuesday, 23rd September, 2014 at 7.30pm
I sincerely hope some of you will be inspired/intrigued to join us on 23rd September.

From the mouths of babes ….
On a walk through a beautiful but remote part of the Peak District, my family stumbled across a
young couple naked in the heather with their own very obvious reasons for avoiding the beaten
track.
My four-year-old granddaughter Emma was perched on her father’s shoulders and couldn’t have
missed what was going on. As we walked away from the you red-faced couple, we waited for the
inevitable questions.
“Wow!” exclaimed Emma happily. “Did you see that? It must have been Adam and Eve.”
One of the very best nights on our Social Calendar last year was
undoubtedly the Memories Night in October. Over 100 silver surfers,
golden oldies or baby boomers danced the night away to music of the
50s, 60s and 70s and were entertained (and didn't stop dancing!) by
Grant Donald, that master of the keyboard who can sing everybody fron
Elvis to Neil Diamond, Cliff Richard to Elton John and a hundred others
in between. We did have a break for pizza and sandwiches but it was a
night for music and dancing.
The tickets will be available from the beginning of October but as
everyone who was there last year will want one, you’d better get yours
very quickly.
This will be Grant’s last appearance for a long time—he doesn’t want us
to grow tired of him…...as if!!

CHURCH PROPERTY—TODAY AND IN THE FUTURE
The Property Committee continues to monitor the condition of the Church and Manse to
ensure that they are kept wind and watertight as we approach another Autumn and
Winter. One of the most important maintenance issues over the next month or so will be
work that is required to the Church Tower. Essential pointing and crack repairs will be
required and we are about to seek the Kirk Session’s approval to carry out this work.
With the new Lunch Club about to start, we have been working with the Social
Committee and East Ayrshire Council’s Environmental Health Department to ensure that
the Church facilities meet with all Regulations.
An improved Disabled access ramp from the rear car park to the sloping ramp leading to
the rear Church door has been formed to ease the passage of wheelchair users and can
be accessed from the rear of the car park.
As far as the proposed changes to the Church are concerned, the Architect Rebecca Cadie of ARPL Architects, has
now presented her outline proposals to the Kirk Session. She is a highly experienced architect in church restoration/
refurbishment and, as a keen churchgoer herself, has enormous sensitivity in dealing with these matters.
These proposals are based on the Design Brief prepared by the Congregation some months ago and the design
solutions in response to our requirements have proved to be innovative and imaginative. For people who find it
difficult to envisage the outline plans on paper she will also present a vivid 3D picture of how our church might look.
The plans will also be on display in the Church before then for everyone to see as well as being included with this
magazine, but all members should make a determined effort to come to church on that day and stay behind for the
meeting, so that they can ask their questions of Mrs Cadie and of the Kirk Session.
On the next two pages we have printed the plans for the sanctuary and the hall. Please take time to have a good
look at them before you come along to the meeting. If you wish to see larger copies, they will be available in the
church from now until the meeting.

KAY PARK STROLLERS IN ARRAN
What a great day we had for our
Strollers outing to the Isle of Arran:
the sun was shining, the sea was
calm and the Strollers were in great
spirits. On arrival at Ardrossan,
however, 45 minutes early for the
boat we were shocked to see that
the car park was almost full and the
overflow spaces were taken up.
Would there be room for 18 walkers
on the boat. Well, we not only made
it on to the boat, we were first in the
queue for the bacon rolls and coffee!

Alpha (Courses)
You are no doubt aware that new plans are being prepared for alteration to the church building. These changes
should see much needed practical changes to the church building but at the heart of these changes is an
opportunity to carry out the real work of the church - Mission / Discipleship.
Earlier in the year I wrote an article regarding Alpha Courses. I asked for a feedback on how you may feel about
KPC running such courses. As plans are being prepared for changes to our building perhaps we should also be . I
got two replies regarding discipleship plans. One such plan would be running Alpha courses now. We have
approx. 500+ members but not on Sundays! Why not start with courses for the those we seldom see and by the
time our building is ready we would have gained experience in running such courses and maybe win back some
of our members.
To remind you of the article:
From the February magazine:
What does the above heading conjure up in your mind? Evangelical type worship/teachings?
We don’t do that in the C of S! What would you think if KPC wanted to run Alpha courses? Do you agree?
Would you be interested if you were invited to one. Would you be willing to get involved?
If I ask you these questions I should also admit to what my own feelings were! Very sceptical, it’s was scary stuff.
Fortunately there is always an opposite to any cynical view point. The following is an extract, featuring key
words or phrases, from the introduction to a day training course on Alpha which I attended in January organised
by the Alpha DNA, Key Principles & Values.
Alpha is based on six key New Testament principles. (Corinthians 2: 1-5)
1.Evangelism is most effective through the local church. (1.Thessalonians 1:6-8)
Releases the whole congregation in evangelism and mobilises a whole army of lay ministers. Persuading (2
Corinthians 5:11), no pressure (Matthew19:22)
2. Evangelism is a process. Building trust, seeking answers, not being told, gradual journey, making new friends.
3. Evangelism involves the whole person. Appeal to the head - Historical faith. Appeal to the heart, God’s love
can be felt. (Romans 5:5)
Appeal to the conscience - Praying to the Holy Spirit to bring conviction of sin. (2 Corinthians 4:2)
Summary
Alpha works through the local church; allows time to journey and build relationships; creates relaxed
environment to hear and experience the truth of Jesus, whilst welcoming the Holy Spirit to draw Alpha guests to
faith.
The remainder of the day went on to explain the ’Nuts and Bolts’ of hosting and running an Alpha course, the
tools required, elements of the course and the team that would be required. The experience of the day was not
what I was expecting. My negative feelings changed to very positive feelings by the afternoon. It is fairly easy to
run these courses but very effective.
One point to make clear, a one off Alpha course will not attract new members to KPPC immediately. For Alpha
to work it may need a commitment by KPPC to run one course each year for 5 years. It’s about helping others,
over several Alpha courses, being there year after year until they perhaps finally take the ‘plunge’.
I asked a few questions at the beginning of this article. I would really like to hear your views on KPPC running
Alpha courses or if you just wish some more information, Please contact me either personally, by phone (01563
524618) or by email ([email protected]).
