Sun shines for beach barbecue
The sun continued to shine as all ages gathered on the beach at A'Chleit for a recent mega Messy Church barbecue.
The Clachan and A'Chleit Messy Church families welcomed friends from neighbouring churches for an afternoon of fun, and people of all ages from Mid Argyll, Lochgilphead, Tarbert, Gigha and Lorne and Lowland attended.
As children played in the sea, ice-cream kept people cool and marshmallows toasted over the fire provided amusement.
Marilyn Shedden, who organised the event, said: 'Conversations buzzed, sausages sizzled, children laughed and everyone had a great time.
'In this Year of Young People, it was good to give God thanks for the joy our young people bring us, and I'd like to thank them all for their exemplary behaviour and for making it such a very special day for us all.'
Mums, dads, grannies, aunties, children, babies and dogs enjoyed the event.
A parachute was used to represent the church's belief that God is everywhere.
