A decision on whether to close a Renfrewshire church and well-used activity hall has been suspended following an outcry at the potential loss of the facility from the community.
The Paisley Daily Express reported in November that the future of Renfrew North Parish Church was in doubt after “astonishing” plans for the place of worship to be closed were revealed.
The Church of Scotland plans to reduce the number of ministers in the Clyde Presbytery from 60 to 40 and as a result various churches across the country are to close, with Renfrew North being one of those earmarked for closure.
