Rachel Walker, a lay person and leader of Fife Cluster Youth Fellowship here at Holy Trinity, Dunfermline, reports on representing the SEC as a delegate at the 11th Assembly of the WCC in Germany.

Lana Woolford, a lay person and iconographer/People’s Warden at Old Saint Paul’s, Edinburgh, discusses her thought-provoking experience as a steward at the Lambeth Conference.

Nicole Grant, one of our fantastic Diocesan and Provincial youth leaders, looks back on her role as an intern at the European Forum. Empowered women met at the EFECW General Assembly in August in Strasbourg, France. Below a picture in front of the European Council after a meeting with the French Ambassador Mdm.
