The General Assembly of the Church of Scotland is the highest court and governing body of the Church. It meets annually, bringing together representatives from various congregations across Scotland to discuss and make decisions on church matters, policies, and mission work. The Assembly plays a crucial role in shaping the direction of the Church and addressing social issues. During the Assembly, members engage in debates, vote on resolutions, and hear reports from different committees. It also provides a platform for discussing the Church's role in society and its response to contemporary challenges, ensuring that the teachings of Jesus Christ remain relevant in today's world.
