Faith in Scotland's Constitutional Future.                                              
This is a project of the School of Critical Studies/Theology & Religious Studies at the University of Glasgow, led by Professor Heather Walton and the Rev Dr Doug Gay. This is an ecumenical, non-partisan and politically/constitutionally neutral research project exploring how folk in churches relate faith to constitutional questions in Scotland.

After video presentations from four Christians prominent in Scottish politics (two pro-Union and two pro-Independence) the discussion will involve listening respectfully to one another’s positions and arguments. This will aim towards relating this emotive topic to the common Christian faith of participants.

There will be an event at Martin's Memorial Church in Stornoway on Tuesday 12th March in the evening. Everyone is cordially invited to attend.
