Kirkin of the Tartan

The Modesto St. Andrews Society
will honor traditions of the past with its
annual "Kirkin' of the Tartan".
This year's event will be held at:

Trinity United Presbyterian Church
1600 Carver Road
Modesto, CA

Services will be at: 8:00 am & 11:00 am

There will be a calling of the clans and all Scots are welcome to attend. Scots wearing tartans will process in at the beginning of each service. Society members are asked to bring shortbread or other cookies to share.

All members of the society are urged to attend, with their friends and relatives, to enjoy and participate in this time-honored ceremony. Wear Scottish garb, or bring a bit of your clan tartan to be blessed. There will be a roll call of clans, an explanation of the ceremony and its history and an opportunity to visit with the church members following the service. All are welcome, and St. Andrews wil provide cookies for the coffee hour to follow the service.
