Welcome to Arthurlie Parish Church, Barrhead, Scotland.

Arthurlie is one of three Churches of Scotland in Barrhead, the other two being Bourock and South and Levern. The United Reformed Church (formerly the E.U.) has close associations with the Church of Scotland congregations.

Arthurlie Church has occupied a position in the centre of the town since 1793, when it was founded by a group of local people who had originally travelled to worship in the Pollokshaws area of Glasgow. After some time holding services in the open air, they built a church on Main Street, close to where the Health Centre now stands. That church was demolished in 1967 to allow a new road and Health Centre to be built. The new building was completed that year, on the entrance to Ralston Road.
South and Levern Church was built in 1846 to house the Free Church congregation that broke from the Established Bourock Church at the disruption of 1843. The church building is nestled in the town's Main Street.
In March 2013, both congregations overwhelmingly voted for the merger, with the appointment of Jim Cowan as minister.

Service Times

Services are held at 9.30 and 11am on most Sundays of the year. An informal midweek service is held on Wednesdays at 10.45am.

From Sunday 19th August, Arthurlie, South & Levern and United Reformed Churches will be worshipping together on Sunday mornings, in Arthurlie Church.
