Welcome to St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Cumbernauld

The Baptism of the Lord marks the beginning of Jesus’ public ministry and celebrates His identity as the beloved Son of God. In the Gospel, Jesus humbly submits to baptism by John in the Jordan River, and the heavens open, revealing the Holy Spirit descending as a dove and the voice of God declaring, “You are my Son, the Beloved; with you, I am well pleased.”

This event reminds us of the significance of our own baptism, where we are called into a life of grace, renewal, and mission. It is a moment to reflect on God’s love for us and our identity as His children, chosen to share His light with the world.

We, the parishioners of St. Joseph’s Cumbernauld, following the example of our Patron and Protector, believe that each member is called to ownership, discipleship, and evangelisation to our parish and local community.

The parish is a community of God’s people centered on the word of God and the Eucharist:

  • where all seek to be loving and caring, welcoming, forgiving, serving and healing;

  • where the poor can go for help, the lonely for company and the sorrowing for comfort;

  • where, with obedience to our own faith and respect for other faiths, we seek unity with all;

  • where, in a spirit of mission, we aim to promote God’s glory throughout the world;

  • where there is a passion for justice and peace;

  • where, as stewards of creation, we care and protect the environment locally and globally; and,

  • where Christ is the way and the truth and the life.

We do all of this as members of the Catholic community within the
Archdiocese of Glasgow and the universal Church.
