A few places are still available to book onto the Interfaith Week on Iona on the theme of ‘Caring for Creation’ from 14th – 20th September, staying in the Abbey and hosted by the Iona Community.
Caring for Creation is a key message in the scriptures of all faith traditions. In this interfaith week you will explore what different faiths have to say about respect for all life and the careful and responsible protection and preservation of the earth’s resources.
Interfaith Week will be facilitated by Maureen Sier, Director and Frances Hume, National Development Officer at Interfaith Scotland; Caro Penney, Iona Abbey Warden and climate change activists Zarina Ahmad and Adrian Shaw.

The 2015 Local Networks Seminar took place in Dunblane on Saturday 26th September. This year the main themes discussed at the Seminar have been used to propose an exciting new way of providing web-based resources, which can be downloaded and printed out to encourage more participation in our congregations.
After considering what other resources are available, the ECS Board now plans to invite individuals / congregations / networks, with the relevant experience and expertise, to contribute to developing and writing the new resources.
Local Networks Seminar Report 2015 also lists a whole host of topics and speakers from networks all around the country (see Appendix 3). If you are not already involved in a network, take a look and see what you might be missing! Everyone is welcome at network meetings – you don’t have to be from a registered congregation. Full information about your local network can be found here.
Join us in welcoming Alves and Burghead Church of Scotland and Holy Trinity Church, Dunoon to the host of Eco-Congregations across Scotland.
