Rosskeen.
Yesterday I was up in the north of Scotland, preaching in Rosskeen Free Church. It was a good day, and a real blessing to meet with them. The church building is impressive, but more than that they have a very committed and active congregation with an exciting view of the future, and developments in their ministry.
The church building is one of those that sits on its own at a mid-point between two towns - originally with the idea that no-one would have to walk too far from anywhere in the Parish. Seeing such a healthy congregation here really goes to show that when the Spirit is at work, the location of your building matters not.

glad to hear you had such a good experience up there!
That said, Rosskeen does kinda seem to be in the middle of nowhere.... alll the better for congregational barbeques!
