GLASGOW & GALLOWAY

Is the largest diocese and has long been associated with shipbuilding and heavy industry, much of which has now been replaced with high-tech and service industries.  The main conurbation of the Glasgow City gives way to the south and west to rural towns and scattered villages.

 

Glasgow, the largest city of Scotland, was the European city of culture in 1990 and hosted the National Garden Festival in 1988 and the 20th Commonwealth Games in 2014.

Members across the diocese worship in their local Scottish Episcopal Churches and come together to meet annually for Worship and Fellowship at Mothers’ Union Spring Council/ Lady Day, Festival Service, Mary Sumner Day and Autumn Council.  Throughout the year members sensitively spread the news of a God who loves and cares for us all by supporting families and nurturing faith in the context they find themselves.

 

Mission includes:-

 

Members worship at churches throughout the diocese with branches at:

 

Members in Glasgow & Galloway also engage with our Overseas Links who from 2015 are members in:

 

Our previous UK and Overseas Links were with members in Byumba (Rwanda), The N.E. Caribbean and Aruba, Upper Shire (Malawi), The Rift Valley (Tanzania), Lagos Mainland (Nigeria), Chester (Province of York) and St Asaph (Province of Wales). Some information about our former links is available here.

 

United by God’s love members in all areas pray daily for God’s guidance -

All this day, O Lord, let me touch as many lives as possible for thee, and every life I touch, do thou by thy spirit quicken, whether through the word I speak, the prayer I breathe, or the life I live. Amen

Mary Sumner’s Personal Prayer
