Cadder church welcomes its new minister
Previous minister Rev. Graham Finch retired in October 2015, and church members have been waiting patiently since then for the right successor to come forward.
So the induction service was reckoned a very special occasion, said a spokesman, “not only for the MacGregor family but also for the family of Cadder”.

The proceedings were followed by a more informal social gathering at the South Halls in Kirkintilloch Road.
During the 17-month vacancy period, services were conducted by retired Lenzie minister Rev. Douglas Clark, while Rev. Martin Forrest, a chaplain at Low Moss Prison, guided and supported the congregation during that time in his capacity as Interim Moderator.
Both were presented with gifts from the Cadder congregation as a token of appreciation.
