The church disappearing would amount to a great loss to the community of an asset that seeks to improve the quality of life of people

Peoples Church, FalkirkPastor George McKim grew up in Belfast and wanted to become a professional footballer until the troubles escalated in Northern Ireland.

He became involved in loyalist paramilitaries and received a prison sentence for a political crime. During such times his parents had become Christians and began seriously praying for their son.

He eventually became a Christian and then a minister. He and his wife Linda moved to Falkirk in 1986. Their first Church service only had 12 people. Now the People’s Church is one of the biggest Churches in Falkirk and does a lot of community based work.
