Local artist Jason Kelly presents
his painting of Railway Street Presbyterian Church to the
Rev Brian Gibson and Mr Gordon Lindsay - Clerk of Session,
following morning worship on Sunday 16th
September. The painting was commissioned to celebrate 150
years of worship in this historic church since the formation
of the first congregation. Jason's painting is now being
reproduced on multi-purpose gift/greeting cards which will
be on sale locally from next week. Proceeds will help with
the publication of a book currently being written entitled '150
year history of Railway Street Presbyterian Church'. The
book is being compiled by John Kelly with the assistance and
sponsorship of James Victor Hamilton, grandson of the late
Very Rev Dr Robert Wilson Hamilton, who was the third
minister of Railway Street between 1885-1935 and served as
Moderator of the General Assembly in 1924-1925.
