Our Prayers
“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored?”
Matthew 5:13
Dear Lord, as people travel to different locations this summer, we remember that you want people everywhere to know of your love and saving grace. We pray for the leaders of summer camps and clubs; for Christians in sports; and for all who travel to help others in your name. Would you inspire all believers to live out your message. For the sake of the Lord Jesus, amen.

History
The present Church was designed by Robert McLachlane and completed in 1790, just as the new planned village of Eaglesham was taking shape. The Gothic-style structure, originally octagonal, is joined to a classical ashler steeple with clock tower, inscribed with the uncompromising
'woe is unto me if I preach not the Gospel'
