. excerpt from Drumsargard.net If the building is not in itself remarkable, then the church and its members are. Although the smallest in physical size among the Cambuslang Kirks - St Andrews, The Old Parish and Trinity St Pauls all being substantially bigger buildings, Flemington-Hallside is experiencing a renaissance, largely thanks to baptisms, weddings and new membership from Drumsagard Village. The other 3 churches are merging, but Flemington is having to consider premises expansion projects. Modern praise and worship, and the "new" minister, Rev Neil Glover and his young family have been instrumental in attracting new members. For the last few years there has been a large Sunday school utilising all the available space - from crèche to teenagers, and the age profile is remarkably young for a Church of Scotland. It's not unusual to see the church very busy, and often on a Sunday morning there are a lot of parked cars and minibuses in the area. (Maybe a reflection of the times that some folks from Drumsagard still use their cars when its a few minutes walk!) The organisations and activities in the church are wide-ranging, from the award-winning Boys Brigade (217th Gilbertfield) and Girl's Brigade for boys and girls of all ages, through keep fit to the usual clubs associated with church activities. . |
