SPECIAL GUEST

The guest preacher at Largo Parish Church’s Advent Sunday service was the Rev Colin Brown, Moderator of the United Free Church of Scotland.

Mr Brown is pictured with Largo’s interim moderator and locum minister, the Very Rev Dr Russell Barr. The two trained together at Edinburgh’s New College in the late 1970s, and have remained friends since.

Dr Barr said: “It was a pleasure to welcome Colin to Largo and to share the service with him. As well as being the current Moderator of the UF Church, Colin has been the denomination’s Principal Clerk. As such he has been a leading figure in Scottish Church life over many years and very committed to working ecumenically with his colleagues in other denominations.”
