The Eco-Congregation Scotland board welcomes Malcolm Rooney as its newest Director.

I am a Church of Scotland Minister working in Kirriemuir. Ordained in 1993, I was a secondary school teacher in a previous life! I am married with three married sons and three lovely daughter’s in law as well as two wonderful grandchildren.

My Congregation, the Glens and Kirriemuir Old Parish Church, is part of the West Angus Area Ministry and we work in close co-operation with four other Church of Scotland Charges in a Group Practice Ministry. I was Presbytery Clerk in Angus from 1997 to 2005 and have also served on the Ministries Council.

When I look at my grandchildren I am more convinced than ever  that Climate Change, Environmental Degradation and Sustainable Living are THE challenges facing humanity in general and the Faith Communities in particular. In the community, I am the Environmental Officer for the 80+ Rotary Clubs in the North of Scotland.
