In September 2022, the Presbytery Plan for Moray was decided in Moray Presbytery. This Plan was submitted to the Church of Scotland’s governance group where it was rejected. Moray Presbytery then reviewed the Plan on 29th November 2022. After some amendments they re-submitted the revised Plan.
For Rothes Kirk the Plan included for the dissolving of the linkage with Knockando Kirk and establishing a new linkage with Mortlach and Cabrach Kirk. Whilst for Knockando Kirk, the dissolving of the linkage with Rothes Kirk and the establishment of a linkage with Aberlour Kirk.
It is understood that the responsible committee in the Presbytery is continuing in dialogue with the Church of Scotland but to date no revision to the Presbytery’s Proposed Plan has been formulated.
