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 12^th March in the evening. Everyone is cordially invited to attend.

Bible Class Scaladale Trip
The Bible Class (S1 & S2) enjoyed a fun overnight in Scaladale recently from Friday 2nd to Saturday 3rd February. The young people enjoyed some ice skating, lots of games and were involved in preparing and cooking each meal (and doing the dishes of course!). The Bible study time was focused on Grace (Ephesians 2) and Obedience (Romans 8) with time for discussion.  

Thank you to the congregation for your support and for everyone who baked. Thanks be to God for his protection and kindness. Please continue to remember the young people in your prayers.

South Harris Free Church Renovation Appeal.  
The South Harris Free Church congregation (formerly Leverburgh) intend carrying out essential repairs to the roof of their church and to make some internal renovations to the sanctuary area.  The cost of the work is estimated to be around £65,000.

South Harris is one of our smaller congregations and they commend the appeal to the prayerful and practical support of congregations within the Presbytery.

Anyone who wishes to contribute to the work should place their contribution in an envelope clearly marked ‘South Harris Free Church’ and place it in the collection plates at either the church or the Seminary.  If paying by cheque, please make it payable to Stornoway Free Church.
