Tabled 21 October 2024 by Frank McNally
That this House congratulates Bellshill Central Parish Church during its year of celebration to commemorate its 150th anniversary; understands that although Bellshill Central Parish Church was formed from a union of the Bellshill Macdonald Memorial and Bellshill Orbiston churches a decade ago, its congregation dates from 1873; notes that the Church and its members remain actively involved in work to support and enhance the local community; further notes that the anniversary celebrations culminated in a special service led by the Moderator of the Church of Scotland, the Rt Rev Dr Shaw Paterson, on Sunday 20 October 2024; and wishes the church and its congregation every success for the future.
