St John's Guild

Guild Logo

The Guild is a movement within the Church of Scotland which 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.

They meet in the Large Hall on Wednesday afternoons from 1:30 pm from October to March (except at Christmas and New Year).

 

Session 2019-20 commenced on Wednesday, 9 October at 1:30 pm with a Registration Meeting.

The Guild operates a three-year cycle of fund raising.  In the last cycle, 2015-2018, the Guild raised an incredible £733,440!  A new cycle started in 2018, to run to 2022 with the focus on journeying together with our communities, nation and world, both in sharing our faith and resources, and in doing everything in our power to bring about positive change.

The six projects chosen to reflect this are:
