Unitarians are people of liberal religious outlook who are united by a common
search for meaning and truth. The Glasgow congregation, which has been in
existence since 1810, is independent but linked through a General Assembly to
some 200 other Unitarian churches in Britain |
Services
Sundays at 11.00 am. First Wednesday of each month from September to
June at 7.30 pm.
Weddings and other services to mark special occasions of life can be arranged
with the lay leader.
Our services of worship can be viewed as a celebration of our deepest values.
We see our religious beliefs as relevant to all aspects of life including the
wider community.
Over half the time our Sunday services are conducted by our lay leader, and consist of a
sermon, music, hymn-singing, readings, prayer and meditation. We also enjoy a
wide variety of perspectives from visiting speakers who range from Atheists to
Buddhists, Presbyterians to Pagans. The Wednesday
evening service is more informal and innovative. All visitors and enquirers are
made most welcome and are invited to join us for coffee and a chat after the
service.
Activities
An after-service discussion, on a pre-arranged topic, is held once a month.
Social Responsibility - a Fair Trade Stall is held on the first Sunday of
each month. We share concern for peace, justice and care of the living earth,
while common concern for the homeless expresses itself in short-term
projects.
Amnesty, Circle Dancers, a Jazz Club, a Shakespeare Society and many other
social and artistic groups meet in the Church Centre.
Children
A person and an activity are available every Sunday for any children who want
to go out for part of the service. Children have a special part to play in four
services each year.
