An offer to Member Churches:
Scotland’s Churches Trust aims to advance the preservation, promotion and understanding of Scotland’s rich architectural heritage represented in its churches and places of worship of all denominations throughout the country.
With a mission as important as this, you will not be surprised to hear that we are constantly thinking of new ways to help churches attract more visitors/worshippers through their doors.
A number of people over the last few months have emailed in to the SCT offices to comment on the number of churches which they have visited that did not have any informative guides about the church they were visiting. Nothing was available to pick up and read whilst they strolled around these wonderful buildings.
We think this is a great shame, not least because visitors will visit a church and leave without learning about its history!
So, SCT would like to launch a project whereby we provide free, tailor made, information leaflets to our member churches. These leaflets will inform visitors of the mysteries, tales, architectural facts and anything else of interest to do with the individual church. However, for this project to get up and running we have to conduct a quick survey to see whether this is something that you, our church members would find useful.
If you are in need of more informative leaflets/brochures which document the interesting history of your church then please do email me on info@scotlandschurchestrust.org.uk to let me know. We would love to be able to help you teach your visitors about the rich history your church has to offer! This offer is only open to churches who are members of Scotland’s Churches Trust
If we have enough signatures, we will be able to move this project forward relatively quickly! For now, all we need is a contact name for the church, the name of the church, an email address and a phone number!
If you would like to hear more about this project, do be in touch with us on the number below!
