Only two weeks remain until one of Scotland's largest Christian event gets underway at the Scottish Exhibition & Conference Centre (SECC) in Glasgow.

NEXUS Scotland 2007, an event organised by the Scottish Christian Resources Exhibition and the Clyde Presbyteries of the Church of Scotland, will be held in the SECC between 23 and 25 August.

Christian resource providers and organisations will come together with churches in the main exhibition hall kitted out with themed zones, special feature areas and a reflective labyrinth to encourage a sharing of experiences, resources and enthusiasm across all denominations.

"The events that have been arranged promise to be hugely significant for Christians of all denominations, as well as of substantial interest to those outside the church," said the Church of Scotland.

Seminars include "Building Inclusive Communities in a Divided World", by the Rev Leith Fisher, former minister at Glasgow's Wellington Church, and "Tackling Poverty Through Faith" by Pauline Edmiston of the Glasgow Transformation Team.

A highlight of Saturday's programme will be the Rev Albert Bogle of Bo'ness, who will lead an interactive multimedia event on making connections with non-church people entitled "Word on the Street".
