There was another church in Springburn you didn't mention. It was the Baptist church in Blenheim Street. I attended sunday school there and I remember we had a "kinderspeil" and all the kids had to learn kids church songs. The Gospel Express was one that I recall and it was fun as we all had actions to perform. I lived in Barcaple Street which was just round the corner from the church. 3  out of 3 found this valuable.

I mentioned this Gospel Hall befor but didn't realise it had that name..only knew it as the Gospel Hall..right across from the swingpark. I did go there and remember only the happy songs. Said before in a previous post don't know why I went there as I also went to Johnston Church Sunday School.

hi buntygal, I think we were all jist wee good souls and you always got a cuppa tea and sometimes a bun if you went to the church clubs and things, remember the band of hope in sighthill church all creeds and colours went there to see the lantern lectures. they used to stamp your membership card as you went into the church hall. Rember seeing a lecture on david livingstone, and after it I wanted to be a missionary and explorer. I remember writing an essay when I was at Hydepark about him. Jings where are all these memories coming from.Cheers for now Bunty 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?
