CHURCH OF SCOTLAND NEWS The Rev John Chalmers (pictured) was recently named as Moderator-Designate, taking the place of the Rev Dr Angus Morrison, who had to stand down due to ill health (as reported in last month’s Sentinel). Mr Chalmers, 61, the long-standing and widely respected Principal Clerk to the General Assembly, has spent most of his life supporting the work of Enable, the charity for people with learning difficulties. During his moderatorial year he intends to visit many special-needs facilities. He is quoted as saying: "I want to tell the story of a church which cares about the conditions in which people live and which puts its money where its faith is, in the work it does amongst the most vulnerable and marginalised." Mr Chalmers also said that he would: "seek above all else to hold the people of the Church of Scotland together in peace and unity". These remarks were as a result of the anxiety voiced by a former Moderator, Alison Elliot, who was worried about the future of the country after a divisive campaign leading up to the referendum in September. She said in February: "How will you feel on September 19th if you have not done as much as you might to promote the particular view you want?" GIFFNOCK SOUTH NEWS Honour for As we write this, Easter has just passed and we look back Giffnock over these past few days, commencing with the joint Rainbows service on Maundy Thursday at the Park Church with a memorable sermon by the former moderator, Rev Dr John Fiona Doyle, Assistant Miller. Our church was then open on Good Friday when Leader of the First Catherine read The Passion and Alan Gillon and Robert Giffnock Rainbows has Beattie provided a gentle musical accompaniment to our been selected to carry meditation. This was followed by the Good Friday service the Commonwealth at URC led by Rev Mary Buchanan and our own Catherine Games Baton when it Beattie. But what was surely the high point was the early passes through East service on Easter Sunday in Giffnock South’s garden The Baton Renfrewshire on July followed by breakfast magnificently prepared by Hannah 16th. She was nominated because of and Laura Beattie. The entire Beattie family do so much to her work with the Rainbows and for enhance the fellowship of our church. The main service at The beautiful cross raising money for local charities by 11am was also very moving with many rousing Easter made from papier running half marathons and 10k hymns and, as usual, a thought-provoking sermon. mâchḗ by Mora Kerr’s events.

EASTWOODHILL NEWS The Annual Eastwoodhill Coffee Morning was held this year on Saturday 12th April and proved to be as popular as ever with stalls besieged by keen customers with an eye on a bargain. Every table in the Winton Hall was filled and the waitresses were kept on their toes satisfying the thirsty throng. The ability of the new kitchen to cater for large numbers was amply demonstrated and the quality of the coffee was particularly noted. Around £1700 was raised which is to be spent renovating the healthcare room in Eastwoodhill to cater for minor medical treatment and other uses which will enhance the experience of the residents.. Such an event entails a huge amount of extremely hard work by the staff and the ‘Friends’ of Eastwoodhill and they and the generous ‘customers’ deserve a huge dollop of Eastwoodhill Care Home grateful thanks. Dear Friends, CHURCH Page 3 It hardly seems like any time since we’ve completed our recent projects within our building!

[email protected] Though pride is to be avoided – coming as it usually does before a fall – there’s a good deal of Church Officer: pleasure to be had in showing visitors around the The Minister’s buildings! Seeing how others appreciate what’s Mr Graham Morton Letter been done helps me to appreciate it all over again. 0141 638 3594 But here’s the thing; re-doing our kitchen was never an end in itself. We’ve made that clear throughout the various stages of the project and will continue to Church Office Hours: do so. Rather, it was about providing for ourselves a means of progressing the mission of the church. The church office is open in the That’s why I’m so delighted then that we’re seeing signs of that taking place. We mornings from Monday to have people coming into our buildings for the first time – some of them to share Friday from 9.30am till noon in our worship, others of them to take advantage of one or other of our midweek ministries. In terms of worship, as has been written elsewhere, wasn’t it 0141 638 2599 wonderful to see the church so busy on Easter Day and what a breakfast! [email protected] Well, the Parent and Toddler Group is going from strength to strength and, by way of one more example, earlier this week (at time of writing) we have added Session Clerk: baby change facilities in the Ladies loo to make coming to our building with a wee one an easier experience. (See photo on page 7). Tony Ireland We’re making it abundantly clear that our church is not a closed shop or a holy huddle, but the kind of place where everyone is welcome and where anyone can 0141 639 6532 Home find a home. 07831 525 513 Mobile I’ve never doubted for a minute that we made the right decision in going ahead with these projects. It has required a huge effort – not least by our fabric team, Church Website: who still continue to oversee the final stages to ensure that all loose ends are tied up. But it’s an effort that will, I’m sure, reap rich rewards in terms of the Www.giffnocksouth.co.uk future health and well-being of the congregation and its mission.

Enjoy a cup of tea or Inspiring Easter Cantata by the Choir coffee before and after the service every If you missed the choir’s rendition of American composer John Sunday Peterson’s ‘Hallelujah What a Saviour!’ on Sunday evening 6th April, you missed an absolute treat as this was a stirring and dramatic Easter Cantata with wonderful tunes that lived with us TEXT OF THE long after the event. Alan Gillon, as was expected, provided a John W Peterson stirring accompaniment on both the organ and piano (though not both at once) MONTH and Martin Bennie conducted the choir with an enthusiasm that led to an accurate rendition, with only a few minor blips in what was an outstanding And it shall come performance. Morag Steven’s narrative was beautifully modulated, setting the scene for each choral piece and the soloists, Carol Cochran and Ian Ritchie to pass, that whosoever shall call provided a lovely contrast to the singing of the massed choir. The ‘extras’ who on the name of the Lord shall be were persuaded to join the ‘regulars’ deserve our grateful thanks and it is hoped saved. that they will sing with the choir again. We hear that this composer has produced more than this one work and we look forward with eager anticipation Acts 2:21 AV to hearing more of his compositions in the future.

  • Minute of the Commission of the General Assembly
    Church of Scotland MINUTE OF THE COMMISSION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY 5 May 2020 COMMISSION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY 5 May 2020 CONCERNING CERTAIN STRAIGHTFORWARD, TIME-CRITICAL AND NON-CONTROVERSIAL MATTERS REQUIRING TO BE DEALT WITH AFTER CANCELLATION OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY 2020 On 17th March 2020, in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, the General Assembly 2020 was cancelled. At their meeting on 18th March 2020 the Assembly Business Committee agreed that there were certain straightforward, time-critical and non-controversial decisions which did need to be made at this time. They, therefore, requested that the Legal Questions Committee (LQC) call the Commission of Assembly appointed by the General Assembly of 2019. The Commission of Assembly Act (Act VI 1997) under “Meetings” enables the LQC to call a meeting of the Commission on its own initiative and under “Powers” says that such a Commission can “dispose of any matter affecting the interests of the Church at home and abroad when the Church would be adversely affected by postponing consideration until the time of the next General Assembly.” The LQC subsequently concurred with this request. On 20th April 2020 a Letter and Order of Proceedings was sent by email by the Principal Clerk, the Rev Dr George J Whyte, to the Commission of the General Assembly 2019. This set out in the form of a proposed deliverance, certain matters, characterised as “straightforward, time-critical and non- controversial”, on which decisions needed to be made at this time. The methodology proposed was as follows. Commissioners were advised that if they were happy to approve the proposed sections of deliverance they need take no action.
