Baptisms, Weddings and Bereavement 

The Church of Scotland operates on a parish system -  that means that each church is responsible for providing pastoral support for key events such as baptisms, marriage and bereavement in the life of people living in the local parish.

Baptisms / Blessings

Baptism is a sacrament for children and adults. For adults, they make vows of commitment to Jesus Christ. For babies and small children, the parents make certain promises on behalf of their children.  A parent or grandparent needs to have a Christian faith or be a church member in order to be able to make these vows. Baptisms normally take place during worship on a Sunday morning.

Sometimes, parents feel unable to make the vows of baptism, but would still like a service of thanksgiving and blessing for their child, and this too can be discussed.

Christian Marriage

When a couple come to the point where they want to find out more about Christian marriage, they can approach the minister of the parish in which they live. The minister can help the couple prepare for their wedding day, and for their married life together. If you live in our parish area our minister would be pleased to talk with you about your marriage.

Bereavemant and Funeral Services 

When a loved one is unwell, anyone within the parish can contact the parish minister for support. Through its parish system, the Church of Scotland seeks to serve all. Please direct enquiries to our interim Minister Rev. Hanneke Marshall

or in the case of a funeral, also through the undertakers.

There are no charges for  the minister's time at funeral services or otherwise, but you may be asked to contribute towards heating and lighting, organist's fee etc. If you have any further questions, please get in touch.

 Interim Minister, Rev. Hanneke Marshall

I have been introduced to Knightswood Anniesland Trinity Church in March 2025 as the interim minister. I will be leading worship most weeks, and working with the kirk session and congregation to further cement the recent unions, and begin working towards a shared identity and future. As an interim minister I will be keeping the bigger picture in mind and soon the priorities for this work will be set, in dialogue with the congregation and kirk session.  You can of course also contact me regarding funerals, baptisms, weddings and becoming a church member. Pastoral care requests may also be directed at me and I will try to make sure someone visits. Funerals may be shared out with others in the congregation where appropriate. I am normally off on Saturdays and Mondays. I will be with KAT church for a period of between 18-24 months during which time we will have hopefully got ready to call a 'normal' minister to the charge.

Before starting as an interim minister, I was parish minister for eight years in St Machar's Ranfurly Church in Bridge of Weir and particularly enjoyed leading worship, developing creative new ways of mission and outreach to the community and offering leadership to the kirk session. I helped prepare my former congregation for a union and also held roles in Clyde presbytery and currently am on the national People and Training task group.

Family and Youth Worker, Louise Reid

I have been a member at the church here since 2014 and continue my own faith journey. I have always enjoyed working with children and young people whether in my paediatric nursing career or the various community arts and crafts groups I have been involved with. I have been the Family and Youth Worker here since 2019. Our regular Sunday Club, Messy Church and Holiday Clubs help young people establish and strengthen their relationship with God in a fun environment. Building good relationships with young people and their families is important to me. The future of the church is dependent on welcoming and encouraging families and young people to come along, join in and explore the activities and worship we offer and through this learn about Jesus' great love for us all. I hope to continue to develop creative ways to engage with and support families, those who access our church and those in our parish.

She is happy to discuss if you would like to know more or for pastoral conversations. 

The Church of Scotland’s membership vows are:

Believing in one God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and confessing Jesus Christ as your Saviour and Lord:

Do you promise to join regularly with your fellow Christians in worship on the Lord’s Day?

Do you promise to be faithful in reading the Bible and in prayer?

Do you promise to give a fitting proportion of your time, talents and money for the Church’s work in the world?

Do you promise, depending on the grace of God, to profess publicly your loyalty to Jesus Christ, to serve him in your daily work, and to walk in his ways all the days of your life?

After a long process of meetings, discussions and voting the congregations of the former Knightswood St Margaret’s and Temple Anniesland Churches joined in a union on the 27^th of January 2022 with a service of Union held at our Knightswood building.
St David's church Knightswood also took part in the process and became part of the Knightswood Anniesland Trinity church with a service of union on the 21st of November 2024. 

We continue to work hard together to get to know each other, to share our strengths, and to build a stronger, loving, creative Christian community. A place where all are welcome and together we can explore our faith and share God’s love with others.
