10,000 mile journey to proclaim gospel in Glasgow

Tim and Lauren Scoular and daughters

Scottish band The Proclaimers famously sang that they would “walk 500 miles” and indeed “walk 500 more”.

But Tim Scoular and his family have moved their lives more than 10,000 miles from Sydney to Scotland – all for the sake of sharing the gospel in Glasgow.

The Australian pastor is leading a new church, called East Glasgow Church, planted by St Silas Church, an Anglican evangelical church in the city’s West End.
