John 14:1-3

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.”

Come to Church in 2020

by Bellshill Central, posted in Other News

Coming along to church

You don’t have to have faith or sign up to anything to come along. You can explore what Christians do and believe and take things at your own pace.

What we do on a Sunday

We begin at 11.00am. We sing hymns accompanied on our fine pipe organ or piano, by our church organist. You can listen or participate in prayers. A volunteer reads from the Bible and the minister gives a talk on it. We sometimes have dramas and other activities.

We try to make the first part of Morning Worship suitable for all ages. For the next part, if there are young children in church, they can join our Crèche and Young Church who leave after the offering.  You can take them through and then come back into Church once they are settled. Or, if you prefer, they can remain with you in the Church.  After Morning Worship on the 1st Sunday of the Month we serve refreshments in the hall.  You are welcome to join us and get to know a few people.

Four times a year we join in Holy Communion (The Lord’s Supper/Eucharist)

This is on the 2nd Sunday of March, June, September and December, as well as Holy Week and Pentecost Sunday.  Holy Week communion is often celebrated with a joint service with all Bellshill Church’s Together. The Minister is able to make Home Communion visits for those who are no longer able to come to church in person.

Other services and their dates are announced in church in advance, such as our Time to Remember Services, Christmas services, Big Sings or ecumenical events.
