Structsre, Governance and Management
Governing Doellment
The Church is administered in a￿ordanCe wilh the remis of th¢ Deed of ConSti￿tion (Unitary Forni).
Recruitment and Appolntment of Trustee$
Membets of th¢ Kirk Session are the charity Irust¢cs. The Kirk Session mefflbers are the eldei's of the churcl) and are chosen
frvtn those memlKTS of the church who are ¢onsidered to have the apprupriale gif(s and skills. Th¢ minister, whu is d member
of the Kirk Session. is elected by the congregatiott and inducted by Presbytery.
Organi53tional Structure
All Temporal and Spiritual matters of the congregation are the rc5ponsibility of thc Kirk Session. The Session meets as and
whcn needed and tl)e agenda covers a wide spectrum of topics relating to the ongoing mallag¢menl of Church affairs. From
within this group, various sub-groups are formed with responsibility for matters such as Propcrty Manog¢ment, Stewardship
and Finance Management. Reports are submitted from these various groups to the main m¢¢ting of th¢ Session for dis¢ussion
and approval.
Objectives and Activities
The Church ot. Scotland is Trinitarian in doctrin¢, Rcforni¢d in traditioll and PresbyterÉan in Polity. It exists to GIoEify God
and to work for the advancement of Christ's Kingdotn tluoughout the world. As a National Church, it acknowledges a
distinctive call and duty lo bring the Ordinances of Religion to the people in every Parish of Scotland through a terrÈtorial
ministy. Ii co-operates with other Churches in various Ecumenical Bodies in Scotland and beyond.
Public worship at Dci?ni5toun New Parish Church is ai I lam each Sunday. This is our main diet of Worship. however, we do
hold special s¢rvices throughout the year recognising vaTiOUS Christian Fesliva15 and, it 15 at such times we endeavour to
involve members of our local community by sending out special invitations to coine along and join us.
Achievements and Performance
Due to the Presbytery PlaTL we are still regarded in technical tern)s as in the'guardianship" of the Presbytery of Glasgow.
The Pr¢5bytery Plan will b¢ rcvi¢w¢d in a f¢w years, tiTll¢ and tnatlers may change. Nevertheless, life still goes on at
Dennistouii New and il musl be said ihai we have pot T¢¢over¢d ￿llY from the Covid Pandemic and the attendant lockdowTL
Numkrs allending WOTship vary but are usually around 50- 60 each w¢¢k with some new attendees, this is always very
¢n¢ouraging. Howev¢r, it would seem, that those newly attending do not wish lo participate in organisaiions, only wishing to
attcnd Sunday Worship. Thcir intcrest may dcvelop.
This past yeaT 2024 was the 151Y anniversary of the opening of the building which houses Dennistoun N¢w Parish ChurclL
Wc continue to have concerts involving the City of Glasgow Wind OrchcstTa which are always well ittended espwially by
non-members of the congregation. We regard these concerts as a valuable outreach fo the wider community and a good spin
off is the extra funds we raise at these concerts. As well as the concerts we continue lo have our Coffcc Mornings at c¢rtain
times of the year i.e. Easter, Summer, and Au(un)n, these loo are good fuiid raisers as well as outreach. Moreover. suc
occasions are good for members of the congregation to socialise out-with the worship services.

Trustees, Annual Report (Contd.)
Year ended 31 December 2024
We are still a useful facility for the wideT community. for example our local MP held a public meeting regarding the crisis in
Gazza and Israel. Furth¢rmore, a self-defence group use our uppcr hall for ¢1tt5S¢S two evenings per week. Organisations likc
tlie Scouts, Beavers, Cubs and Brownics conunue to use our halls too. Indccd, th¢ Scouts in particular are involved in thc lifc
of the congregation, attending specific worship services, and contributing to oiir annual Gift Service for Geezabreak when
our own members make cckntributions of gifts, also being involved with our own regular support for th¢ Glasgow Nortbeast
Foodbank for which we gather food every week. We Ivdve a Harvest Thanksgiving Service too when w¢ take a spe¢ial
offeriiig for thc GlasgFow Lodgii)g House Mission and the Scouts bring food doiiations foT th¢ Glasgow Ngith¢ast Foodbank.
We still have our annual Remcmbrance Sunday Service, which is well attended, and ihe Scouts are on parade loo.
Anothcr Tradition which w¢ hav¢ dcvclorKd and maintsined is Stewardship Month, when in cach Sunday of June every year
wc havc g time duriiig QUT Worship Scrvicc wh¢n w¢ think about our tespoiisibilities as stewards of our r¢sourccs not Just
with tlie Church In milld bul ibe wider world too i.e. tlie nalural environm¢nt, our use of resources and how it affects the
environment and our sliaring of personal resources with those in ne￿. During this month we also distribute a Stewardship
Offering Envelope foT ali extra offeriiig toward5 the work of the Church.
The Honesty Caf¢.' The Ncw Den Cafe. still OPCTat¢s Cach Thursday I I.30am- 1.30pm. This proves to bc valuablc in that Ét
offers a wann Space to gather wheii heating is expensive and a bit¢ to eat, customers paying wliatever can be afforded, as
well as a chance for some company and a blcther too. However, thi$ is b¢coming increasingly difficuli to stsff, and new
volunteers are always welcomed. The cafe pays for itself and contributes materially and financially to the life of the
congregation.
Each Monday members of the congr¢gaiion organise and attend a Keep Fit Group which is #noiher chan¢¢ forp¢ople to get
Some exercise, to sociali.se and celebrate certain occasions.
The Welcotning Teams each Sunday and the Readers are a good way of involving mcmbcrs and adherents in the life of the
¢ongi¢g4tion.
Each Sunday afier Moming Worship the services of the ladies who provide refreshments and lunch are io be valued. Not
only d(* they provide lunch but 21so th¢ financial donations given to them by the beneficiaries of their s¢rvi¢es are
appreciated.
The Mustard Sccd Fcllowship (fornierly the Lighthouse Church) continue to use our premises for Sunday Worship and
wcckly Prayer M¢ctings. The Apostolic Fellowship hav¢ rctumed to using the premises for worship at]d do so cvcry Friday.
Gamblers Anonymous use th¢ 5rnall hall each Saturday too. These three groups are to be welcomed not only because they
are valuable for what they do. but because tbey are valued stream of extr& income for the cOn￿egatiOn.
The Fabric of the Church building continues to be managed by the Minister and the Session Clerk. This is of course a
perennial matter. The Upper Hall was given a fresh coat of patnt foi the occasion of our celebration of th¢ building's 150Th
anniversary and the Moderator's visii io mark the occasion. We had the curtaii)s laund¢i"ed,' the walls paiiited and some of the
ceiling tiles rcpl4Lc¢d. How¢v¢r, Ilic problctns with the leaky roof persisted, this is partly due to vents in th¢ gylass roofdbove
tl)e hall ceiling and the drainage from the roof when extreme rainfall happ¢ns. as a rcbult some of the work to the ceiling was
undone. Nev¢nheless, the hall bellefited ￿¢atlY from the work and still looked spik and span for the Moda'ator's visit on
Sunday 15th December when we had a special service at which tlie Mod¢rator th¢ Right Reverend Dr. Shaw J. Paterson
preached and wa5 a150 attended by fonner Ininist¢rs and other friettds of the congregation including local politicians and
other5. After the Church Service all in attendance went to the newly decorated upp¢r hall where ihe Fellowship Team had
arranged a buffet fca5t which was enjoyed by ¢veryon¢. This buffet we had instead of our annual Christmas Dinner.
It tnust be said tliat the Moderator's visit was an uplifting occasion enjoycd by all and a lime of encouragemettt for the
congregation.
