This new project from the Scottish Churches Parliamentary Office (SCPO) is called “Meet your MP”. It aims to build links between congregations and the 59 MPs that represent them across Scotland.
SCPO want church communities to be at the heart of the decisions that affect our everyday lives – and what better way to get involved than for churches to get to know their representatives in Westminster.
After the success of the ongoing Meet Your MSP project, Scottish MPs were enthusiastic about SCPO initiating a project that they could get involved in!
Congregations are encouraged to think of ways in which they could get to know their local MP, such as organising a walk, inviting them to a church event, or even just arranging a chat around some home baking. The possibilities are endless – but making contact is crucial.
