    Your Thoughts & Ideas are Welcome! If you are NOT a member and would like to get in contact with Clydebank Waterfront Parish Church, for any reason, then please use the email address as follows... [email protected] Thank You!
WHO ARE WE? • We are married, not married, single, separated, divorced and remarried. • We are different generations of brothers, sisters, adults and children. • We are all genders and sexualities, lifestyles and experiences and a few prejudices too. • We are people very new to the church and many who have been here longer than they care to remember. • We are folks who know little about the Bible and those who know quite a bit about it. • We are Sunday morning only members and those who come to everything. • We are beginners on the journey of faith along with those who have travelled quite a distance. • We are people looking for something BIGGER in life. • We are a mix of explorers and traditionalists • We are people who want to be together: caring accepting and loving each other. But most of all... people who want to be together: caring, accepting and loving each other.

Inside

  • Church Interior - Fly Through (Don't make yourself dizzy)
    A wee panorama of the inside of our kirk when empty. Shhhh...You'll waken the church mouse! (and please close the door behind you in case it gets out) We know it's not about the building but it is very clever how you can do this. Many thanks to our property convenor's son Campbell McKerracher and if you go to cammylad.com then you'll see more of his suff.

Cynical Thought

I'm a member of a few email discussion groups that are meant to help with sermon ideas. I haven't been following them during July becasue I've not been preaching a sermon, nor following the lectionary. Rather we've been experiencing some of the big stories which I've really enjoyed. However, this morning I've been downloading some thoughts from these email colleagues and came across this from a guy called Gary Dillensnyder. He's one who has consistently good thoughts. What do you thik about what he says here?

"But, then, I think the truth is that I have yet to find or be part of a church that is more healthy than dysfunctional, more alive than dead, more interested in what the Bible actually teaches than their own theology, more invested in social action and witness than survival and status quo, more committed to growing and deepening than feeling good and keeping the 'peace'."
