Commonwealth Games: 25th July–2nd August 2026
The Commonwealth Games are coming to Glasgow this summer from 25th July to 2nd August. We will be one of the churches in the ‘Games Corridor’ from Tollcross to Scotstoun. The athletes and their families will be accommodated in the hotels around the SEC area not far from the church.
We are looking for ideas on what we could offer – perhaps hospitality or opening the sanctuary for visitors and prayer/quiet space. Of course in order for this to happen, we need volunteers. Please consider giving your time to welcoming visitors to our lovely building. If you have ideas or would be available during this time to help out, please speak to Kenny.
Pastoral Care Team
Our recent Congregational Action Plan Survey highlighted the need for more people to join our Pastoral Care Team which is currently running with only one active member!
A Christian Pastoral Care worker is someone who offers care and support to one another in the knowledge of being loved themselves by God and in the hope of sharing that love with others.
If you can make phone calls, visit Care Homes, Sheltered Accommodation or make a home visit, are a good listener, able to show empathy and compassion, are non- judgemental, reliable, a good communicator and able to give a supportive presence, could you spare some of your time to join our Pastoral Care Team?
If so, please speak to Kenny (Session Clerk). Thank you.
Communications
We operate a congregational-wide email list that keeps you up to date with any church news throughout the week. If you would like to sign up, please email stawpc@gmail.com asking to join. If you have any news you would like to share, please use the same email address to share it with the list.
Free-Will Offering
As part of worship, a cash free-will offering is taken and uplifted, the proceeds of which directly go to support the life and work of our church. There is no obligation to contribute, and you are more than welcome to simply pass the bag on to your neighbour.
If you would prefer to contribute electronically, then offerings may also be made via the Church bank account. Details are:
