ANNIVERSARY
On November 30 the congregation of Baillieston St Andrew’s Church in Glasgow marked its 50th anniversary.
The occasion was marked with a Fun Day for the church’s young people and a celebration dinner for members and friends.
A Celebration Morning Service was also held on Sunday November 27, including the dedication of new communion cups, two new banners and a memorial banner designed and made by members of the church’s Girls’ Brigade Company.
The congregation was formed in 1966 from the Union of Baillieston Parish Church and Rhinsdale Church.
CORRECTIONS
In last month’s parish news there was a picture of the Rev Evelyn Hope at the launch of her book on the Ruthwell Cross. The lady she was pictured with was the Rev Sally Russell, Presbytery Moderator, not the Rev Jennifer Squires as stated. The price of the book (which also featured on page 48 of the March issue) is £10 and not £15. We have also been asked to point out that the Cross dates from the 8th or 9th century, making it more than 1000 years old. Apologies for the errors.
Last month’s world news referred to the General Council of the World Council of Churches. That should have read the World Communion of Reformed Churches. Apologies for the error.
