That the Parliament congratulates Dalserf Church on achieving the prestigious silver award from Eco-Congregation Scotland in recognition of its environmental work and achievements; notes that Eco-Congregation Scotland is a movement of Scottish church congregations, of all denominations and none, committed to addressing environmental issues; understands that the congregation applied for bronze certification but that the panel awarded the higher-level silver accreditation due to the demonstrable achievements evidenced in the application; commends the eco group for developing a reflection garden, recycling centre and wildlife area within the grounds of the historic 350-year-old church, which is situated in the heart of the Clyde Valley; understands that the Dalserf Church congregation is planning to hold a workshop to inspire other churches and encourage them to work towards the environmental award; welcomes the progress made by Dalserf Church, and wishes Dalserf Church and other Eco-Congregations well with their environmental work in their communities.
