Reconsider closing Johnstone High Parish Church

The Issue

Johnstone High Parish Church has stood at the centre of Johnstone life for 230 years. It has an active congregation with an average attendance around 100 every week. The building is Grade B listed, and includes a great selection of stained glass. The congregation are active in the community and host several organisations throughout the week. Closure will sadly impact this. Some of these groups are unable to afford hiring community premises and use the halls on a donation basis. We are asking for your help to have Clyde Presbytery reconsider this decision. Please share this with as many people as you can, both locally and further afield.
