UNIONVILLE: Anniversary service

Unionville Presbyterian Church, 815 Wollaston Road, will be celebrating its 175th anniversary with a traditional Kirkin' o' the Tartan Worship Service starting at 9 a.m. Sunday, May 5. Guests are asked to bring or wear their family tartan "if you have one." The first Kirkin' ceremony in America can be traced back to a service held at New York Avenue Presbyterian Church in Washington, D.C., in 1941; the minister, the Rev. Dr. Peter Marshall, was originally from Coatbridge, Scotland, and served as Chaplain of the U.S. Senate.
