Video of Services

In these difficult time of COVID-19, with restricted numbers who can attend it is vital that our Church still reach out to our community congregation and friends. Services are filmed and carried on YouTube, premiered at the regular time of service (for Sunday,11.00) While we miss gathering together for worship, YouTube does deliver two great advantages in that you can watch or re-watch at any time and we can welcome visitors from a’ pairts – indeed worldwide – whether these be our own folk who have moved away or even those who have never heard of the “Fort at the end of a range of hills” (Kirkintilloch). Please join our virtual but very real service on St Mary’s YouTube Channel

Induction for Rev Dr Ruth Morrison

INDUCTION OF THE REV. DR. RUTH MORRISON ON THURSDAY 19TH AUGUST 2021

BOOKING SYSTEM IN ST MARY’S PARISH CHURCH

As you will all know, we decided in June 2021 that we no longer required to use the booking system that we put in place at the beginning of COVID pandemic as we were able to increase the number of ‘locations’ in our sanctuary. This has proved to be successful, and we have always had sufficient ‘locations’ for those who wish to attend worship in person.

However, we are concerned that at the induction of our new minister on Thursday 19th August, our current number of ‘locations’ could be oversubscribed. 

As we do not want to have to turn anyone away, we have decided that for this one occasion only we will revert to our original booking system.

Therefore, for those of you who wish to attend the induction of the Rev. Dr. Ruth Morrison into the charge of St Mary’s Parish Church on the evening of Thursday 19th August 2021, I would ask that, as previously, you contact the Church Office by telephone between 09.00 and 13.00 from Wednesday 11thAugust until Wednesday 18th August, both dates inclusive, and give them your name, the number of people in your group attending and your telephone number.

This will enable us to ensure that you are allocated a ‘location’ in the church.

Should you want more information regarding this change in procedure for this one occasion, please contact John Pears on 0141 762 1205.
