Welcome
 Welcome to the website of St Aidan's Episcopal Church, Clarkston, on the south side of Glasgow. We are part of the Diocese of Glasgow and Galloway, in the Scottish Episcopal Church, a province of the worldwide Anglican Communion. We are also in full communion with the Lutheran Churches of Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Iceland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, and Sweden, in the Porvoo Communion. Our congregation includes individuals and families from many parts of the world, and everyone is welcome to share in our worship and fellowship. STATEMENT FROM CLARKSTON CHURCHES
TOGETHER
The clergy of Clarkston Churches Together have continued to meet, as they regularly do, and have valued the opportunity to use virtual media to maintain contact during lockdown. We have noted with concern an upsurge in bigotry in our society, from which this area has by no means been exempt. We wish to reaffirm our shared allegiance to the Christian Gospel, and to the equality of all human beings, irrespective of race, creed, and sex, before God. The BLACK LIVES MATTER movement bears necessary testimony to the enduring legacy of racism, slavery, and imperialism in our society. We identify unequivocally with its aspiration to a just society in which the intrinsic dignity of all human beings is respected.
3 July St THOMAS  Collect: Almighty and everliving God, who strengthened your apostle Thomas with faith in the resurrection of your Son: grant to us, who have not seen, that we also may believe and so confess Christ as our Lord and our God; who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen. Readings: Habbakuk 2:1-4; Ps 31:1-6; Ephesians 2:19-22; Hebrews 10:35-11:1; John 20:24-29 28 June PENTECOST 4 
Collect: O God, the protector of all who trust in you, without whom nothing can be whole and nothing can be holy: increase your mercy towards us, that, with you as our ruler and guide, we may so enjoy the good things of time, as not to lose the things of eternity; through Jesus Christ, our Lord, who lives and reigns with you, in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, world without end. Amen.
