THE WELCOMING CHURCH

Church of Scotland Guild

With around 30,000 members, the Church of Scotland Guild is one of Scotland's largest voluntary organisation. Although women make up the bulk of our membership, increasingly, men are becoming members and taking active roles at local and national levels. The Guild invites and encourages women and men to commit their lives to Jesus Christ and enables them to express their faith in Worship, Prayer and Action.

Our own Guild meet at 7.15pm on alternate Thursdays from September to March. During the deepest part of winter of 2010/2011 (11 November to 17 February inclusive) we are meeting at 2.30 in the afternoon. Please see the Guild page for up-to-date information.
