The Meeting Place

The Meeting Place is the name we give to the Stonelaw Road entrance to the church.  This area was once known as the Vestibule and later as the Hall of Fellowship, but it became obvious that we needed a bigger area there to do the things we wanted.  A £60,000 project to extend the area and open up the Sanctuary with a glass wall gave us the space we needed.  

Six mornings a week, people are invited in to the Café @ The Meeting Place; and one of the benefits is that they can see the beauty of our Sanctuary.  At other times, we have held events like Thursday Night Bible Study, Sunday evening worship and a monthly mid-week service in this space.

The Meeting Place is our route to the community, and our open front door.  Here, parents, toddlers, old friends, neighbours awaiting a doctor’s appointment, or visitors from the Care Home, are served by an army of volunteers.  We have regulars and passers-by, and every day our doors are open and our coffee machine and kettle are always on.  And if you pass in an evening, and see lights, you are always welcome.  We are an Open Church.
