“The launch of the new Scottish Episcopal Institute is an important step for the Scottish Episcopal Church. ‘Forming people for mission’ – the Scottish Episcopal Institute will provide training for the next generation of clergy and lay readers. We need ministry of high quality if we are to fulfil our calling in mission in 21st century Scotland” says the Most Rev David Chillingworth at a special service to mark the launch of the Scottish Episcopal Institute (SEI) which took place in St Ninian’s Cathedral, Perth on Sunday 4 October. The Rt Rev Kevin Pearson, Bishop of Argyll & The Isles and Convener of the Institute Council presided and the Most Rev David Chillingworth, Bishop of St Andrews, Dunkeld & Dunblane and Primus of the Scottish Episcopal Church preached the sermon, which you can read here.
