NEW LAIGH KIRK

A caring and welcoming church at the heart of Kilmarnock, reaching out to you with the Gospel of Jesus Christ

MORE THAN A CHURCH

New Laigh Kirk is a well known landmark at the centre of Kilmarnock. We welcome you to join our community of faith as we journey together on our spiritual paths. New Laigh Kirk is not a closed shop or a Holy Club, but a caring community, reaching out to all.
The church is more than the building – it’s the people. We consider ourselves a community hub, outreaching to care homes, hospitals and schools within Kilmarnock. Our church halls on John Finnie street also hosts community projects and groups suited for all ages, from tiny tots to senior citizens. We welcome you!

Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ.

There will be a Music for All concert held in New Laigh Kirk on Thursday, 2nd May at 7.30pm. We shall hear about the charity's good work in supporting people in emergencies and helping them in the longer term through development projects. Our guest speaker will be Charlie Meiklejohn from Christian Aid. Musical entertainment will be provided by Crossroads Community Choir, which has gone from strength to strength since its formation in 2021 and now performs before "sell out" audiences. On this occasion you don't even need to buy a ticket as the concert is free! There will be an option to donate to Christian Aid at the end of the concert.
