Glasgow Churches Merge Amid Staff Uncertainty | Glasgow News

Three Glasgow churches—Tron St Mary’s, Colston Wellpark, and Springburn Parish—are finally merging after two decades of talks, part of the Church of Scotland’s broader strategy for worship spaces. The historic Tron St Mary’s building, in poor condition, now threatens a vital community project that’s been running since 2013, offering integration and support. Two key staff members have been told they’re entering a 30-day redundancy consultation—though some say they were given little warning. The Church insists staff were aware of merger risks for years and were on fixed-term contracts, advised to seek other roles last autumn. The project, financially stable with a year left on its lease, is seen as fragile without its core team and few volunteers. Meanwhile, emotional transitions continue, including a minister under investigation for allegations, with the Church declining to comment further. Community members fear the project’s users may be caught unaware as changes unfold. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
