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.

Come to Church, come to Central!

Coming back to church, or coming for the first time, is never easy. But Bellshill Central Parish Church is a place where you will meet a friendly face, a neighbour you’ve not seen for a while, or maybe even a family member.

Our buildings presence on the Main Street has been here for over 140 years serving God and we believe we have something amazing to tell you.

It’s not about a religion. Its about a relationship. A relationship with Jesus.

If you’re thinking about coming back, or coming along for the first time, please get in touch and we’ll help you along the way.
