2010

Holy City is the Glasgow city-centre monthly ecumenical workshop & worship event.  It’s enabled by the Wild Goose Resource Group of the Iona Community, in collaboration with a motley crew of Glaswegian citizens. www.holycity-glasgow.co.uk.  0141 332 6343

28 March; 25 April; 30 May (Sundays): Holy CITY 09-10: Revised Standard Visions: Imagining another world – Venue: Renfield St Stephen’s, 260 bath Street, Glasgow 7.00-10.00 p.m.  Climate change, the credit crunch, the still-unfulfilled demands of justice & peace … our generation faces a multitude of challenges … The history of faith and culture speak of each generation facing similar critical times, when prophets and visionaries have re-framed and reformed the way we think about our world.  It’s said that ‘without a vision, the people perish’.  Holy City’s 2009-2010 programme addresses this urgent need in all its facets, and seeks to explore the re-imagining and revisioning of faith, our lives and our times.

19-21 March (Friday-Sunday): SYNOD RESIDENTIAL MEETING at Tulliallan Police College.

7 April (Wednesday): Grasping Nettles: How will our children have faith?:  The Religious Education curriculum has changed profoundly in recent years.  But does its openness to issues critical for young people contribute to, or detract from, the possibility of their having faith – any faith?  Mrs Pat Boyd, RE teacher and examiner, member of St John’s Episcopal Church in Edinburgh, has been involved in education and interfaith for many years.  Light meal 5.30 p.m.  Cost: £15 (£5b local rate for tea/ coffee only).
