We exist...
To Glorify God Who is our Sovereign;
To present Jesus Christ Who is our Saviour;
To keep in step with the Holy Spirit Who is our Sanctifier,
in order to be a light so lovely in the community that all would be drawn into His presence.
Who Are We?
The Church of Scotland in Strath and Sleat exists for the glory of God as our mission statement, above, declares. Our parish covers most of the south of Skye with churches in Kyleakin, Broadford, Elgol and Kilmore. We warmly welcome anyone who wishes to come along to our services and worship with us - the times of our meetings are all available on the website.
We are simply a group of people who have become deeply aware of God's love, acceptance and forgiveness as they have been shown to us in Jesus. Having experienced something of His amazing love for us and for the whole world we have been brought to love Him in return. And having experienced the joy and peace of knowing Him as our dearest Friend we gladly and lovingly encourage others to know Him too!
Where Are We?
The parish of Strath and Sleat comprises of most of the south of the Isle of Skye, an island off the north west coast of Scotland. Skye is the second largest island in Scotland with a population of around 10,000 people.
Skye is a popular island with tourists due to its natural beauty and many other unique features. Every year many folk are lured to the island by the majestic Cuillin hills, the wildlife (golden eagles, sea eagles, red deer, otters and seals to name a few of the highlights), the culture with its blend of traditional music and dance and the Gaelic language, and the peace of simply 'getting away from it all'.
