St Leonards Parish Church St Andrews

The Guild

St Leonard's Guild is a Church Fellowship meeting in the church hall on alternate Thursday evenings from the first Thursday in October until the end of March.
The meetings commence at 7.30pm with a short act of worship before a speaker addresses the meeting. The talk is usually Christian based and often accompanied by slides or picture presentations.
At least one meeting in the year will be based on a Guild Project. The projects are selected for a three year period and funds raised by Guilds throughout Scotland contribute large sums to these on an annual basis.
