Congregational Meeting, Sunday 26th January
We will hold a special congregational meeting immediately after the close of the 11 o’clock service on Sunday 26th January.
The only business for the meeting will be to discuss and agree the document entitled, “Basis of Parish Grouping”.
This requires a little bit of explanation. It is really an interim document which has been prepared by Presbytery on the way to full union between Crown church and Old High St Stephens church.
The new Presbytery boundaries are already effective and Crown church and Old High St Stephens are currently sharing the new parish and this document effectively formalises that agreement. It has already been agreed by our Kirk Session and agreed by both the Kirk Session and the congregation of Old High St Stephens. Our Kirk Session does not see anything controversial in the document and it is therefore likely to be a fairly short meeting although it will provide the congregation with an opportunity to ask any questions in relation to the more general issues.
