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.
Bellshill Central Parish Church has been part of local community life for more than 150 years, and we want to continue serving Bellshill for generations to come.
As we explore new opportunities and plan for the future, we would love to hear your ideas, hopes and suggestions.

⛪ Sunday Worship — 13 September
Join us at 11am at Bellshill Central Parish Church, 346 Main Street, Bellshill, ML4 1BA.
Our service will be led by Rev Margaret ES Rose, BD. Margaret was our locum minister for more than two years, and we’re delighted to welcome her back to lead worship with us.
The service will include the Sacrament of Communion, with a retiring offering.
Everyone is welcome at the Lord’s Table. You don’t need to be a member, and you don’t need to have attended before. Simply come as you are.
We use non-alcoholic Communion wine, and gluten-free bread is available.
For families:
Young Church and Crèche activities are available during the service. We begin with an interactive All-Age Talk, after which children and young people can join the activities. Children are very welcome to remain in church with their parents if they prefer.
