"A friendly, traditional church in the south side of Glasgow"

A review of Giffnock United Reformed Church by Roger Spooner written on Friday 15th of May 2009

Giffnock United Reformed Church is a friendly, traditional church in the south side of Glasgow, Scotland. The regular services (at 11am on Sundays) are well attended, while new visitors are of course especially welcome. The minister, Lesley Moseley, leads worship with a passion and character that give a texture to the whole experience, whether as a member or a passer by.

Sunday services include communion on the first Sunday of each month. Every week, we have the opportunity to share fellowship after the service over tea and coffee. The junior church welcomes children, while parents can participate fully in the main service.

The church is part of the Scottish United Reformed Church, as well as being active amongst the local ecumenical church activities in Glasgow.

The church benefits from a particularly strong community with activities throughout the week. The “Saturday Sales” include bring-and-buy shopping as well as refreshments. The Wednesday “Lunch Bite” is a shared meal for people available during the week. The Leisure and Learning group explores books and other media together for culture and study. The bible study group works through scripture with lively discussions.

Other organisations also take advantage of the spacious church halls, including Scouts, Cubs, Beavers, Alcoholics Anonymous, Weight Watchers and Harlequin theatre..
