St. Andrew’s Parish Church

The church and religion mean much to us both. The church we attend is a couple of minutes walk from our house. It is part of The Church of Scotland and it is a modern multi-purpose building It is a church of the community

Multi-purpose means that the main church is used all through the week for things as varied as children's play groups and keep fit classes. For the service on Sunday the comfortable chairs are laid out and the hall becomes the church we all love. We are in charge of the church printing equipment and the biggest job involved with that is handling the printing of the Church magazine four times a year. It is called "Review". We also print the Order of Service booklet each week. We also try and do other jobs that need done in the day to day running of our church

Since the end of September 2004 we have no Minister (pastor).  Our previous minister had to retire due to ill health and our church has become “vacant”. We are now in the process of looking for a new minister. It is up to the church congregation to choose a new one. We hope and pray that we will get a new minister soon. There is a shortage of ministers in the Church of Scotland as with most denominations these days.

However we are very fortunate to have Rev. Dr Archie Ferguson as our “locum” minister. Archie is a very caring man and he is keeping us all in very good spirit until we find a new minister to lead us.

We welcome visitors to the Sunday morning service at 10.30am.
