Baptist Assembly in Scotland 2010 This year's Assembly will be held in the Vine Venue, 131 Garvock Hill, Dunfermline, KY11 4JU, from Thursday 28th - Saturday 30th October 2010.
Who is the Assembly for?
The Assembly is for all churches in the Baptist Union of Scotland. Delegates come from across Scotland to represent their church and enjoy fellowship, discussion and worship together as a family.
Churches who have contributed to the Scottish Baptist Fund are entitled to send:
- The minister and any other assistant minister(s)
- Churches not exceeding 100 members may appoint three other delegates
- If above that membership, one more delegate for every additional 100 members or part thereof may be registered
The Assembly is also for any Scottish Baptist who would like to register as a visiting delegate. The number of people attending who are not official delegates from their church has been increasing every year. We hope this trend will continue because the Baptist Assembly in Scotland is for the whole Scottish Baptist community.
Talk to your church secretary about Registration Forms or for a downloadable version and more info on speakers, programme, etc, see www.baptistassemblyinscotland.org
