About Us

The Church of Scotland Parish of West Moray was formed from a union of 8 congregations into a Team Ministry which covers Urban and Rural. The Urban part of the Team Ministry is based in Forres St Leonards Church currently operating services month and month about with Forres St Laurence and the Rural part of the Team Ministry is based in Kinloss Church. A Mission church has been established at Dallas and is covered by the Rural part of the Team Ministry. The churches at Alves, Burghead, Findhorn and Rafford have all held their last Sunday services. The fate of the church at Forres St Laurence is still being discussed.

The Rural part of the Team Ministry is supported by Reverend Dewald Louw out of Kinloss Church. The Urban part of the Team Ministry is currently vacant. The West Moray Church of Scotland Session currently has the Reverend Richard Moffat as Interim Moderator and the transition process is being supported by Reverend Tommy Bryson who is acting as Co-ordinator. Below is the members of the Cleir Eilean I Presbytery meeting before the inaugural service for the Parish of West Moray Church of Scotland.

The site is under development with the aim of bringing together the information held on the legacy websites of the congregations before the union. So please explore and feel free to use the contact form to tell us about anything you would like to see included. Also please come back again in the future as the website is still developing
