Newton Mearns Parish Church

In 1739 a congregation of worshippers from Mearns, Eaglesham and Neilston formed and decided to build a church in what we now know as Newton Mearns. The church took four years to build. The present church is the fourth, and second to be built on the present site. Built in 1939 to meet the needs of a growing community, it was dedicated in December of that year.

Occupying a prime location at the intersection of the roads north, south east and west it became known as the Church at the Cross and the name continues with our Junior Church children adopting the name Kids@thecross.

We have two beautiful stained glass windows in memory of lives lost in both World Wars, but also modern windows reflecting the young people of our church.

You will have the chance to take a self guided tour with members on hand to help and provide further information. There will also be information on all current organisations meeting in our halls.
