Welcome to Balfron Church of Scotland Linked with Fintry
At the heart of the congregation’s life and work is the gospel of Jesus Christ, the good news that God loves us and accepts us through faith in him.
As the parish church, we recognise and value our partnership in the gospel with other branches of the Christian Church and this is reflected in the presence among us of folk who would describe themselves first as Baptist or Free Church etc.
Following a period during which The Church of Scotland Ministries Council appointed the Rev Iain Goring to the charge of Balfron linked with Fintry as Interim Minister, we are now in a position to call a minister.
Our linked charge of Balfron & Fintry has started the process by appointing a Nominating Committee, and has prepared a Parish Profile.We will soon be advertising.
As we move through the vacancy we believe it is important to remember in prayer all that is going on. We have now agreed a prayer strategy for these months and this can be found here.
