The Guild is an organisation within the Church of Scotland |
Locally we meet fortnightly in the afternoon from October to MarchNationally there is a structure which provides a framework for us |
The overall theme within a three year cycle is‘Be bold, Be strong,Go in joy, go in peace, go in love.’During the three year cycle there are six interesting projects for which we raise money |
Although open to men, our group consists of ladies who enjoy fellowship and a range of interesting speakers - with the inevitable cup of tea and home baking |
We
look forward to our opening meeting in October when our minister Jane
will explore the theme ‘Go in Love’.
