Islay church plans shock

Gerald Newman, by email.

On my recent visit to Islay, I was shocked to learn that it had been proposed to close Kilmeny Parish Church, along with two other churches on the island, within the next three years.

Although I no longer live on Islay, Kilmeny was the church in which I was baptised as a baby and married in. My extended family on Islay still attend this church on a regular basis.
