• Welcome to St. Columbkille's Catholic Church Rutherglen

    • Welcome to our parish website which we hope you will find to be informative about our church and the life of our parish community.

    • HISTORY

    • The present church building was opened in 1940 to replace the first St Columbkille's Church which was founded on the same site in 1851.

    • Our Parish Vision

    • We aspire to be a welcoming and faithful Eucharistic community, serving the Lord, spreading the truth of his Gospel, and helping all to respond to God's Universal call to holiness, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

    • St Columbkille's from on high

Some brightness in the midst of the gloom

The work or refurbishing and conserving the frescoes in Our Lady’s Altar is now complete. To provide some glimpses of their restored beauty, and to whet your appetite for seeing the real thing when the church re-opens, a few pictures are provided in the gallery below. The first two show the contrast between BEFORE and AFTER restoration.
