We take seriously our responsibility
to faithfully steward God's creation.
In 2008, we were awarded our Eco Congregation Status. We were commended for our recycling programme, our linking of environmental issues and our Christian faith, and taking action in the local or global community. We have since earned two further awards from Eco Congregation Scotland due to our efforts in recycling, calculating and reducing our carbon footprints, enhancing the grounds of our church buildings, and many other activities.
We continue to support existing projects and try to introduce new ideas and initiatives whenever possible. We continue our recycling project with many items being collected at both churches. The following can be recycled - ink cartridges, aluminium foil, milk bottle tops, used postage stamps, foreign coins and mobile phones. The proceeds from the sale of the ink cartridges go directly to Christian Aid, and the proceeds from selling the foil is used to help enhance the grounds around our buildings.
