Author: Bellshill Central

As the Church of Scotland in Bellshill we extend a warm welcome to any of our activities. People have been coming to this building to worship God for over a hundred years. While our town has journeyed through many changes over those years, the constancy of the witness of the “Church at 346 Main Street” has remained uninterrupted. The mission of any Church is to reflect through its presence, its music, its fellowship and its beauty the greatness of God, and we seek to do that here in all that we share. We hope that everyone who enters these doors will find an encouraging, friendly group of people. While we are far from perfect, we are regularly discovering truths that are changing us individually and enriching our lives as a church community. As we worship together, learn from the Bible, and pray for one another, we are strengthened in our commitment to Jesus Christ as well as to each other. If this is your first time here, we welcome you, and invite you to share the joy that we have found.

The organist entertains seeks to help keep you connected with your Church, the building, it’s surroundings and the sounds of the organ.

Catch up with an Advent and Christmas themed musical feast!

This is Episode 83 in the organist entertains series which yet again proves to be a super edition of your hymns and requests, and the words appear on the screen. And the dual cameras are back this week too.

Please have your CH4 books ready if you would like to follow the music, but don’t worry the words for the hymns and songs will appear on the screen.

The hymns included are

  • Hark the Glad sound
  • In the bleak mid-winter
  • How great thou art
  • People look East
  • While shepherds watched their flocks by night
  • The race that long in darkness pined
  • Cradled in a manger, meanly
  • Make way Make way for Christ the King
  • Christians awake salute the happy morn
  • As the deer pants for the water
  • Jubilate, Jubilate, everybody
  • Tell out my soul

Sunday evening prayers at 7pm

by Bellshill Central, posted in Prayer items

In this Advent of expectation
draw us together in unity,
that our praise and worship
might echo in these walls
and also through our lives.

In this Advent of expectation
draw us together in mission,
that the hope within
might be the song we sing,
and the melody of our lives.

In this Advent of expectation
draw us together in service,
that the path we follow
might lead us from a stable
to a glimpse of eternity.

This is Advent, the season of preparation. The shops are full of gifts that we might give or receive. Streets are decorated and choirs begin the rounds of community centres and retirement homes with their seasonal offerings of carols. As we prepare, we remember another, John the Baptist, who came to prepare the Jewish people for the arrival of Jesus. John, who would prepare a way through a call to repentance, so that hearts and souls would be ready to receive the One who was to come.

Father God, prepare our hearts not only for the celebration to come, but also for sharing that Good News with friends, family and work colleagues should opportunity arise. Grant us courage and a real willingness to talk about the love that came down to earth and walked among us. Amen
