Church of Scotland Guild

The Church of Scotland Guild has as its aim, ' to invite and encourage both women and men to commit their lives to Jesus Christ and to enable them to express their faith in worship, prayer and action.' This is carried out in a number of ways; through congregational groups; the wider work of the church through support for a range of projects; co-operation with other churches and in bodies like the Women's National Commission and Scottish Women's Convention. The Guild offers opportunities for a Christian perspective and influence on current issues. Training events and programmes are offered to develop members' gifts and equip them for these responsibilities.
