INvest in community outreach and engagement to encourage
SPiritual reconnect with the Christian Gospel
REgeneration of Church and Community.
Seeking to glorify God and make known the love of God in Christ in Bellshill.
‘INSPIRE’…..a spiritual reawakening through the Word made Flesh ‘To reconnect with the community through a strategy of gospel centred local engagement initiatives promoting participation from across the demographic spectrum with a focus on youth. A revitalised Christian mission stimulating Church growth – both numerically and spiritually’
St. Andrew’s has deep roots in the town and community of Bellshill dating back to 1762. The Church has
provided a precious conduit for the Gospel message to flow.
The central and highly visible location of the Church building has, throughout the ages, enabled the
Christian message to be communicated right at the very heart of the town.
Looking forward and building on recent successes, the Church wishes to develop and reimagine the role of
the United Free Church in the locale as a conservative evangelical church with an expository pulpit ministry
and discipleship and accountability.
Central to our plans will be:
-Investment in the Church estate to further develop an appealing and welcoming Church environment.
-Redesign and refurbish aspects of the existing Church building to create a multi-purpose environment in
support of our Christian ministry
-Increase visibility within local communities, develop and strengthen relationships with likeminded
Christian ministries
-Engage with community through the hosting and promotion of a broad range of events complimentary to
the work of the Church.
