National Stewardship Campaign 2012 - 2014: By resolution of the 2011 General Assembly presbyteries are instructed to conduct a stewardship campaign over the next three years. Presbyteries have in turn instructed every congregation to take part.
We are recommended to form a small group to propose plans to the two Kirk Sessions. This group will consist of an elder, a board member and a member from each congregation plus the Minister. Anyone who feels they would like to be part of this group should please contact the Minister or Session Clerk without delay.
