Faith in Scotland’s Constitutional Future

January 29 @ 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm

“Faith in Scotland’s Constitutional Future” 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.

Please click the link below for further information on the event taking place at the University of St Andrews Chaplaincy Centre on Monday 29th January starting at 7 pm. Church members in your Diocese are cordially invited and very welcome to come.

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 difficult and emotive subject to the common Christian faith of participants.

    On the feast day of St Margaret of Scotland we pray especially for the congregations of St Margaret of Scotland, Leven; St Margaret of Scotland, Tayport; and St Margaret, Rosyth. May we all follow St Margaret's example of charity towards all God’s people.This panel, with its painting of a holy person calling us to be holy, is part of the 1600s painted ceiling in St Mary’s Chapel, Grandtully, which is in the care of Historic Scotland.Almighty God,who called your servant Margaret to an earthly thronethat she might advance your heavenly kingdom,and endued her with zeal for your Churchand charity towards your people:mercifully grant that we,who commemorate her example,may be fruitful in good worksand attain to the glorious company of your saints;through Jesus Christ, our Lord,who lives and reigns with youin the unity of the Holy Spirit,one God, world without end.Amen. ...

    On the 26th Sunday after Pentecost we read and reflect on Jesus’ warnings of the difficult times ahead for his followers in Jerusalem. Earlier this autumn the sun picked out the stone arches of the bridge over the river Earn in Crieff.As Jesus came out of the temple, one of his disciples said to him, "Look, Teacher, what large stones and what large buildings!"Then Jesus asked him, "Do you see these great buildings? Not one stone will be left here upon another; all will be thrown down."Mark 13:1-2O Lord, forgive the transgressions of your people:and by your goodness release us from the snare of sin,in which, by our frailty, we have been caught;through Jesus Christ our Lord,who lives and reigns with you,in the unity of the Holy Spirit,one God, world without end.Amen. ...
