Cumbernauld Old Parish Church is a member of Scotland's Churches Trust
Open Days
We are opening the doors of our Parish Church to visitors every Sunday afternoon between 2pm and 5pm during July, August and the early part of September.
A team of members will be available to show people round and to answer any questions they may have. Books charting the history of the church from the 13th Century onwards will also be available for sale.
Induction of Minister
We are delighted that the congregation has elected Rev Elspeth McKay as our new minister.
Rev McKay's Induction as minister of Cumbernauld Old has been confirmed for Thursday 3rd August at 7.00pm in the Parish Church and that will be followed by a social event in the Village Hall, The Wynd.
We are looking forward to welcoming Elspeth and her family into our church and community and hope they feel very much at home here.
On Sunday 6th August there will be a joint service at 11.00am in the Parish Church, where Elspeth will be 'preached in' by her friend and colleague Rev Ian Dick. That service will replace our usual two services at 10.15am and 11.45am, the latter at the Forge Centre, Balloch.
Cumbernauld Food Banks
The Food Bank in the Village is open each Friday from 11am - 12.30pm at the Parish Church.
We continue to look for donations, and especially tinned goods (mince, stew, curry, hot-dogs, chopped ham/pork, spaghetti, macaroni cheese, ravioli, peas, beans, potatoes, tuna, fruit and custard, etc.) plus tea-bags, long-life (UHT) milk, breakfast cereal and biscuits. Now that we are open in the Session House each week we can also accept the donation of toiletries. There is a box for donations in the church vestibule and at worship in The Forge.
