Church Guild

"Called to Act Justly" is this year's theme for Guilds to follow. With this in mind, for our September meeting we had a very interesting talk about the work of the Mission Aviation Fellowship who fly in help, medical and spiritual, to very remote and inaccessible areas around the world. Their "Madagascar Mission Run" is one of the projects Guilds are asked to support this year. For our October meeting, we heard about the Justice and Peace group in Cupar - how they help to promote justice for the poor in countries around the world, and how through this group, Fair Trade in Cupar was started. After each meeting, members enjoy a cup of tea and a time of fellowship.
