Life & Work
Glasgow Presbytery
Life and Work is the Church of Scotland’s monthly magazine. The March issue has a specific feature about Glasgow Presbytery. On the assumption that this might be of interest to some folk who are not subscribers we have obtained six extra copies. These are available for uplift at the back of the church. If you do take a copy please return it the following Sunday so that others may have the opportunity to read it. Alternatively click on the Life and Work image.
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'
