Presentation to Murdo I Macleod
A presentation from the Deacons’ Court on behalf of the congregation will be made to Murdo at the close of the prayer meeting on Wednesday evening 19th February.
Murdo recently retired from the position of Clerk to the Deacons’ Court after 21 years of faithful and diligent service. It is only right that his commitment to the Lord’s cause in the role of Clerk should be formally acknowledged and that we, as a congregation, mark this occasion with our sincere thanks for these years of unstinting service.
