After the excitement of the cup win over Hibs last weekend the #pars return to league action away to St Johnstone who top the Championship. With Dunfermline having new signings and players returning from injury we have the opportunity for an upset against the league's best side.

Great to take part in the School Officers Engagement Event hosted by the Scottish Violence Reduction Unit in Glasgow yesterday. Our Emotional Health & Wellbeing Lead, Sofia, led an interactive session on conflict styles. A brilliant day with lots of learning, connection and shared experience.

Maltbie Davenport Babcock, #Presbyterian hymn writer, warns that following Christ isn’t hitching a lift to heaven. It’s Gethsemane and Calvary—then the duller bit: service, ministry, and self-forgetting love. Not heroic triumph, just laying yourself down, tediously, day after day.

Where are the trees?
We have A LOT of this landscape and less than 4% native woodland. This should be a rich mosaic of habitats, moor, bog, woodland, montane scrub…We force it to remain in this artificial state. We don’t need to give every inch of our uplands over to sheep, grouse and deer stalking.

The turning point in yesterday's match when Hibs Bowie was through one on one with the #pars goalie Mehmet who spread himself and prevented him scoring. Mehmet one of a number of players who have improved markedly under the new management team.
