Over the last few weeks Very Rev William C Hewitt, Joint Presbytery Clerk of Glasgow Presbytery has been engaged with the City Council over the provision for Unaccompanied Asylum seeking children who are coming to Glasgow next year. He has suggested that faith communities may be a resource for the City Council who is looking for people to provide a home for these children. If you are interested in helping; the times of information evenings can be found below and there is a poster on the Hall of Friendship noticeboard giving more information. If you are looking for additional information regarding this scheme please feel free to contact Very Rev William C Hewitt on 0141 332 6606 or 07984 807598.

‘VOLUNTEERING VOCATIONS’, A GAP YEAR SCHEME FOR YOUNG ADULTS AGED 18 – 25, has been running since 2015, and has proved a positive and inspiring experience for volunteers and their placement congregations alike. The Ministries Council of the Church of Scotland is hoping to continue the programme with a new group of volunteers in 2017– 18. The programme offers a fantastic opportunity for young people to gain experience of the different types of work within a parish or project in a supported environment, whilst exploring any potential call to serve the Church in the long term. A short film about the scheme made by our first group of volunteers can be viewed here:
