Kirkin’ Weekend
Join us for a weekend filled with worship, music, fellowship, and a joyful remembrance of the faith carried through generations.
The Kirkin’ of the Tartan is a way of giving thanks for those who carried the Christian faith forward, often at great cost, and for the legacy that still shapes who we are today. Rooted in the Scottish Presbyterian tradition, this weekend invites us to celebrate that inheritance with gratitude, joy, and community.
