Useful Information

Twinning with the Diocese of Hyderabad

The Presbytery of Glasgow has previously been twinned with the Diocese of Hyderabad, Pakistan. Steps are being taken to renew this twinning arrangement and in the mean time we still very much hold our friends in Hyderabad in our prayers. Further information about our twinning is seen in the 'Resources' section. 

Local Twinning

If you or your church has previously been involved in twinning or would like more information on how to get involved with Twinning, contact the Presbytery Office.

Eco-Congregation

As Climate Change increasingly becomes a concern, many of our congregations are working towards becoming an Eco-Congregation.  To find out how to become an Eco-Congregation click here.

World Mission Stamp Appeal
World Mission Stamp Appeal

Why not save your used postage stamps to help make a real difference to World Mission partner projects, and help the environment too? You could encourage your congregation, friends, family, colleagues, neighbours and anyone else you know to collect too! If each person saves just a few stamps we could help to make this a record-breaking year for the appeal. To find out more, including this year's appeal poster download, click here.

Please save your stamps for this fantastic cause. You can drop them off at the Presbytery Office - we're happy to take any donation, no matter how large or small.
