Ruth Kelso came to the Isle of Tiree from Knightswood Baptist Church in Glasgow where she had been a member of the pastoral team for 17 years. She began her ministry with Tiree Baptist Church on the 1st of April 2025. Ruth also works part time at the school on Tiree. She is becoming a familiar face and looks forward to island life.
For a number of years Ruth had pre-pandemic brought various teams of young people to help the church run Holiday Bible Clubs each summer. Training others was important to Ruth. God had laid on her a heart for the West Coast of Scotland, especially for the Hebridean Islands and that very much included the Isle of Tiree. On Saturday the 26th of April 2025 Ruth was ordained and inducted as pastor of the Baptist Church on the island. Listen below to this very special family occasion.
