Iona Community
The Iona Community, founded in 1938 by the Rev George MacLeod, is an ecumenical Christian community of men and women from different walks of life and different traditions in the Christian church.
Its headquarters are in Glasgow, Scotland, where its publishing house Wild Goose Publications 〔http://www.ionabooks.com〕 is also based, but its main activities take place on the island of Iona, and to a lesser extent also on Mull, in Argyll and Bute.〔
==History==
The community began as a project led by George MacLeod, at that time Church of Scotland minister in Govan, Glasgow, to close the gap which he perceived between the Church and working people. He took a group of ministers and working men to Iona to rebuild the ruined medieval Iona Abbey together. The community which grew out of this was initially under the supervision of an Iona Community Board reporting to the Church of Scotland's General Assembly, but later the formal links with the Church of Scotland were loosened to allow the community more scope for ecumenical involvement.
