David Clarkson

Minister

DClarkson@churchofscotland.org.uk

David was a Police Officer in the north of Scotland for 19 years before becoming a ‘paid’ minister.  He was an elder and Lay Reader, and firmly believes that every Christian should be actively involved in building God’s kingdom.  He is passionate about making disciples, not simply believers.  David tries to encourage others to take regular, if small, steps of faith in preparation for those times when giant leaps are required.  He does try to lead by example rather than word.

David is married to Linda and they have two sons, Alasdair and John.

You should contact David about weddings, baptisms, funerals, visiting and becoming a member, but not about heating in the church – David knows nothing about the heating system (or where the paper towels are kept).

Lesley Keenan

Session Clerk

Lesley has recently taken over as Session Clerk and is looking forward to working with both the Minister and Elders in support of the work of MPN.   As Session Clerk Lesley keeps the elders in order (which is a bit like herding cats).

You should contact Lesley about almost anything relating to the church if it’s not on this page already!  If you have been unable to get minister Lesley is the person to contact.

Robert Gibson

Treasurer and Property Convener

office@mpnchurch.org.uk

Robert gets things done around our buildings, no job is too hard.  He is also treasurer and tries to make sure we stick to our budget.

You should contact Robert if you want to hire a hall or room, or with any property related question.

David Watson

Musical Director

office@mpnchurch.org.uk

By day, (and most evenings too!!) David is Head Teacher of a large primary school in Ayr. He has the privilege of being organist within this congregation and enjoys leading praise of all kinds – including a range of modern and traditional – he has tried for the past eight years to please everyone with his choice of praise each week – but this is still work in progress! David is keen to use the music talents of the congregation in concerts, shows and entertainment provided by our praise group! Watch this space for the next event!

David is really quite a friendly, approachable chap and is happy to play for any event if required! He is also happy to include in Sunday worship, favourite items of praise – please drop him an e-mail!
