Our congregation was warmly welcomed into the Free Church today (21st May 2024) during the Tuesday afternoon session of the General Assembly. Scott was also presented to the Assembly for interview and was accepted as a Free Church minister.
If you'd like to see a recording of this afternoon's session it's available here. The part of proceedings specific to Mearns Free Church runs from the 2 hr:3 min:30sec mark onwards to 2hr:20 min.
The next stage will be Sunday (26th) here in Belmont when representatives of Glasgow & Argyll Presbytery will lead us in worship and formally receive our congregation into the local Presbytery of the Free Church. They will induct Scott formally as the Minister of Mearns Free Church and help us appoint our first elders (those elected by the congregation on 10th March). This is a crucial service - please do try and be with us, and prepare prayerfully.
