Walking Group Adventures
The next walk will be on Saturday 19th July 2025, to Palacerigg Country Park on the edge of Cumbernauld. A circular walk of just over 3 miles, but with lots of opportunities to shorten the route or try one of the shorter trails on offer.
As this is a car-based trip, please let the Church Office (office@sjrchurch.com) know if you are thinking of attending so we can ensure we have enough spaces and if you can help with transport. Meet at 10am at the church. All welcome.
Parking Charges
Glasgow City Council proposes implementing parking charges to Beaconsfield Road and Norwich Drive. 7 days a week from 8am -10pm up to a maximum of 3 hours which amounts to a staggering £14.40. The costs to attend worship at £1.20 per 15 minutes would be approximately £6.00- £7.20 every Sunday morning. This proposal clearly would have significant impact on all who use the church, weekly worshippers, youth organisations, dance groups, mother and toddler, pop in cafe, choirs etc. Our halls are a community asset and the impact to us as a church financially could be devastating. For these reasons we urge you to consider completing the survey.
The survey asks a few questions you may not have answer to, but placing a dot in answer box allows access to next page. At the end, there is a box for free text comments that allows you to say the impact the charges would have on you and your connection to St John’s -Renfield Church. Cathy and the Leadership Team will be happy to assist you in completion of the survey. www.smartsurvey.co.uk/s/KelvinsideAndKelvindaleParking2025/
