Synod Meetings
The Synod Council meets twice a year in March and October, chaired by the Synod Moderator: and the Synod Clerk Keir Hounsome.
The March Synod Meeting is moving online as it is clear that we would not be able to gather sufficient people in one geographical location. However, it is going ahead - by Zoom on the designated date, Saturday 20th March, and will be run from 10am to 1pm. All welcome, as Synod meetings are not restricted to those who are members of the meeting. In order to join the meeting, please follow these instructions below:

We would appreciate it if everyone joining the meeting could do so using their own name, Though it is not absolutely crucial, attendance records are helpful - and 'Grandad's iPad' doesn't really tell us who you are. Better still if you can, please add in your church name.
