Christ is Risen! He is Risen Indeed!

Welcome to the worship service from Cumbernauld Old Parish Church for Easter Day.

We are doing something different with the hymns, two of which are in four-part harmony with organ accompaniment, but with only two of us singing / playing. The wonders of technology!

The intimations at the beginning of the service give details about our plans to re-open the Church for worship starting on Sunday 25th April. We will continue to provide worship online for those who are unable to join us in person. There is also information for those who have been saving their small change in ‘coffee jars’ or wherever; we’ll collect them soon. And there’s also an update about our Easter fund-raiser. More about that below.
But, first, let us worship God together…
