Kirkin' O' the Tartans

Pastor Doug’s first Sunday back after his Sabbatical, and as part of our morning worship we will be celebrating a Kirkin’ O’ the Tartans with a full Pipe and Drum band! The service includes a blessing of the tartans, or clans and will serve as a reminder and celebration of our Scottish Presbyterian roots.
We’ll be celebrating all of our “roots” – families, clans, tribes or nations. If you have known Scottish roots – let the church office know your clan name/tartan and the name of anyone who will be in attendance representing that clan.
If you do not have Scottish roots – Any tribe, nation, ethnicity that is part of your roots and with which you identify and the name(s) of any who will be present and representing those roots.
Pastor Doug will be wearing his kilt and invites any who have a kilt, skirt, tie, sash or other tartan to wear it. Also, if you come representing some other tribe or nation and have any traditional clothing or item representing that culture, you would be welcome to wear/bring it as well.
We hope to have all of the families, clans, tribes and nations represented on that day, as well as the names of those representing them, listed in the bulletin so that we can bless them all! So, please send in that information as soon as possible so that we don’t miss anyone.
We hope for this to be a fun and celebratory time of worship as we give thanks for all that God has done throughout all generations and asking his blessing on all of us as we move into his future!
