Welcome! It is wonderful to have you exploring our website. It would be even better to meet you in person at our church. Perhaps you have been living in Lisburn or you have recently moved here; whatever the case we at Railway Street Presbyterian Church would like to bring you the warm Christian greetings of our congregational family. We are a fellowship of friendly, happy people who want to share the joy of following Jesus with you and support you in any way we can. Our Sunday morning worship is an informal family service which is designed to be inclusive and enable all generations to engage with God in a meaningful way. Come and meet our ministry team, find out more about us, have a look at our church life for adults, kids, youth and community.
Rev. Brian Gibson
