Kirking of the Tartans and Shortbread Reception

Kirking of the Tartans Join us for our annual celebration of the Kirking of the Tartans at St. Andrews on Sunday, October 27. With Bagpipes, tartans, special music and liturgy, we celebrate the Scottish roots of our Reformed faith. While our members come from a wide diversity of countries and ethnicities, the Presbyterian Church traces its roots back to Scotland. We are all children in God’s family, brothers and sisters in Christ, no matter our lineage- and we are all families in the clan of St. Andrews. On the Sunday when we celebrate our Reformed and Scottish heritage we also celebrate that the Gospel was not confined to Nazareth; that the good news continued to spread to Scotland, to the United States, and around the world. On October 27, everyone is invited to wear something that represents and celebrates their heritage, whether it be a tartan, Kente cloth, or cowboy boots!

There will be a shortbread reception in Heffner Hall following worship. Join us for a wee cupa tee and some shortbread after worship. Everyone is invited to bring their favorite version of shortbread, whether home-made or from the store.
