PENDLETON PRESYERIAN CHURCH IS HAVING A KIRKING ON JUNE 5. THE PUBLIC IS INVITED!
The word “kirking” means a “churching” or a blessing.” It comes from the Scottish Gaelic word “kirk,” which means church. The Kirking Ceremony dates to 1559 and the founding of Presbyterianism in Scotland. The National Church of Scotland - the denomination’s mother church – celebrates an annual worship service when civic leaders, clan chieftains, various dignitaries, and church officers are blessed by the Kirk, or church, and re-dedicated to their positions of influence. Religious and governmental leaders are blessed because, unlike in the United States, separation of church and state isn’t an issue in the British Isles. Traditionally known as “Kirking of the Council,” the service begins with the ceremonial arrival of the clergy, the choir, honored guests and elected officials. The word of God is read and preached. Hymns are sung. Prayers are offered for those called to lead, and the Church blesses the society at large. The Reverend Dr. Peter Marshall, of Coatbridge, is the pastor most credited bringing the service to the U.S. During World War II, he preached a sermon at the New York Avenue Presbyterian Church in Washington, D.C., called “Kirkin’ O’ The Tartan.” From there, the service spread like wildfire across the nation, and today many Episcopal churches - a denomination rooted in England – also join in the beauty and pageantry of this Scottish celebration and re-dedication.
