Who we are
Come in and learn about the Lord and His love
The Church of Scotland is Trinitarian in doctrine, Reformed in tradition and Presbyterian in policy. It exists to glorify God and to work for the advancement of Christ’s Kingdom throughout the world. As a national Church, it acknowledges a distinctive call and duty to bring the ordinances of religion to the people in every parish of Scotland through a territorial ministry. It co-operates with other Churches in various ecumenical bodies in Scotland and beyond.
The church is well attended with a good spread of age groups although a fair number could be classed as older. Regular worship takes place on Sunday mornings at 11am with a fairly traditional format. There is a Sunday School which attends for part of the service and then goes out to do its own activities. This means that the first part of the service is more geared to youngsters but is well received by young and old alike. The service generally lasts about an hour with the main diet of worship and praise coming from the CH4 hymnbook. We have purchased a Christian Copyright Licence which does allow us to use praise from alternative hymnbooks and this is generally well received. We follow the Christian Year and have special Sundays for different festivals and themes.
In addition to the weekly Sunday morning service we have evening or afternoon services on some Sundays in the year, some of which are of a less traditional format and are organised and led by a group of church members who are guided by the minister. Formal communion services are held on the first Sunday of March, June and September and on the last Sunday in November with informal communions being held following the 11am service on one Sunday of some other months.
Services are held at other times, sometimes in conjunction with other Church of Scotland congregations and sometimes with churches of other denominations.

New St Andrew's Parish Church History
New St Andrew's Parish Church was formed in 2008 as a union of the former St Andrew's and Clifton congregations. St Andrew's Parish Church was formed in 1993 as a union of the former Maxwell, Gartsherrie and Dunbeth congregations.
The congregation uses the church and halls of the former Gartsherrie Parish Church. The former Maxwell and Dunbeth church buildings and halls are in Muiryhall Street and Weir Street respectively and have both been converted to flats. Gartsherrie Parish Church was opened in 1839 for the benefit of the workers employed by Wm Baird & Co, Ironmasters and their families. It is a red sandstone Gothic revival church with steeple and clock tower, architects Scott Stephen & Gale of Glasgow. The church occupies a commanding site with a large graveyard just a short walk uphill from the town centre. It has a very fine organ by Willis 1870, thoroughly renovated in 1937 with some additional stops. Stained glass by Alfred Webster, 1912, in the entrance vestibule.
Dunbeth Church was founded in 1837 as Coatbridge Relief Church with the original building opening in 1839 in what is now Stobcross Street. Railway developments affected the site on which the church stood and this necessitated the building of a new church in Weir Street. This building was opened in 1872 and was then known as Dunbeth Parish Church
Maxwell Parish Church was formerly known as East United Free Church. Its inception as a congregation took place in 1868, with the building in Weir Street opening in 1873. The church was re-named after the Rev Adam Maxwell who had a ministry of 45 years ending in 1926. Clifton Parish Church was formed in 1993 as a union of the former Coatdyke and Coats congregations. Coatdyke Church had also been formed as the result of a union in 1973 of the former Cliftonhill and Trinity congregations. The former Coatdyke (Cliftonhill) buildings in East Stewart Street are now used for residential and retail purposes. Cliftonhill Church was formed in 1887 having been originally a mission under the auspices of the Kirk Session of Dunbeth Parish Church. (In 1887 the church was originally known as Coatdyke Church and changed to Cliftonhill Church in 1929.) Trinity Parish Church was consecrated in 1905 and the former Trinity buildings in Muiryhall Street are now used by the Roman Catholic church and are known as Holy Trinity and All Saints Church. Coats Church in Jackson Street was opened for worship in 1875 having been part of the parish of Gartsherrie Church. The former Coats (Clifton) building is now used as a funeral home.

Teach us to serve Thee
Teach us, good Lord, to serve Thee as Thou deservest: To give and not to count the cost; To fight and not to heed the wounds; To toil and not to seek for rest; To labour and not ask for any reward, save that of knowing that we do Thy will.
