The Rev Morag Muirhead became the moderator for Lochaber at a Presbytery service in Fort William Duncansburgh MacIntosh Church on Tuesday June 12. Moderator Rev Fiona Ogg conducted the service and installed Rev Muirhead as moderator for the forthcoming year.
Rev Muirhead was ordained as a minister at Fort William Duncansburgh MacIntosh Parish Church in May 2013 and appointed to that church as part of the ministry team. Morag trained as a minister after several years as a reader and elder. Apart from church connections many in the town will know Morag due to her career in teaching in Inverlochy Primary School until her retirement in 2009.
During the service the challenges of change facing the mission and ministry of the church nationally as well as locally were highlighted.
