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.

Coming up on Sunday 19th June at 7 o’clock we are holding our BIG HYMN SING “Old and New” in aid of Maggie’s Cancer Centre in Airdrie, attached to the Monklands General Hospital.

Our Organist will lead some well chosen hymns and we will have a speak from Maggie’s and refreshments in the hall afterwards.  Entry is free, but an offering donation will be uplifted for Maggies.   

If you sing in a choir and would like to form part of our harmony choir, then come along early and sit in the reserved seating.  Music will be provided, or click here to download. 

All are indeed welcome!
