You will have heard a lot about the COP26 Conference which is due to open on 31 October. A programme of ecumenical and inter-faith events are taking place in Glasgow over the three days leading up to the Conference opening, hosted by a variety of church and faith groups, and an ecumenical service is being planned in St Mungo’s Cathedral on Sunday 7 November after the close of the Conference.

At least four separate international pilgrimages will be arriving in Glasgow for the Conference. Do take time to look at their websites, follow their progress and pray for their safety and effectiveness in promoting the cause of climate justice:

Get Docht (Katowice, Poland to Glasgow)

Pilgrims Walk for the Future (Vadstena, Sweden to Glasgow)

Camino to COP (London & Bristol to Glasgow)

Relay to COP – YCCN (Cornwall to Glasgow)
