The second Scottish Episcopal Church Rural Commission Conference will take place on Saturday 20th February at St Johns, Inverness (10am-4pm)
The programme for the event has been driven by the key issues which emerged from the Action of Churches Together in Scotland/Scottish Episcopal Church (SEC) Rural Futures Conference held in December 2009.
This conference will provide the Church with a scoping exercise exploring areas which Dioceses may subsequently wish to explore in their own contexts.
