From its foundation in 1163 to the present day - worship in Paisley Abbey has been offered to God and hospitality extended to all pilgrims and visitors.
Paisley Abbey has as its core aims:
- To offer worship to God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
- To welcome in Christ's name all who visit the Abbey for whatever reason.
- To witness to the love of God within the community of Paisley.
PLEASE SUPPORT PAISLEY ABBEY
THROUGH THE PRESENT PANDEMIC
AND MAKE A DONATION TODAY
Paisley Abbey continues to serve the people of Paisley and beyond through Sunday Services, albeit it with limited numbers allowed, and through caring for those in need of pastoral support. However, there is now no income from the hire of our buildings for events, concerts and meetings, no income from the gift shop and coffee shop, no donations from visitors.
The Church of Scotland has set up a way in which donations can be made either to the general funds of the Church, which have also been severely impacted by Coronavirus, or to an individual congregation such as Paisley Abbey. Simply click on the 'Donate' link below, scroll down the page, fill in ‘Gift Aid’ details if appropriate, and then, donate. THANK YOU.
Resumption of Sunday Worship April 2021
The easing of some restrictions means we are able to
resume congregational worship on a Sunday, with two services
taking place at 10.30am and 12noon. Booking a place at a service
is essential and this must be done in advance. There are still
limitations on numbers attending, social distancing and the
wearing of facemasks is also required, congregational singing is
not permitted at the moment. These measures will be in place for
the foreseeable future.
Booking a place at a service should be made by 2pm on the
Thursday prior to the Sunday service by emailing
info@paisleyabbey.org.uk or leaving a message and contact
details on 0141 889 7654. Please note the office will be operating
on reduced hours and we will confirm your booking as soon as
possible.
The Abbey will not be open during the week for visitors and the
Gift Shop and Cafe remain closed at this time.
