About Us
On November 29th 2006, the existing churches of Greenock St. Luke’s and St. George’s North united to form Greenock Westburn Church of Scotland.
The origin of our Church buildings dates back over four hundred years.
A fuller history can be found on our History page.
Due to the circumstances of the Union, we we were initially served by the two Ministers in place at the time of the Union i.e.
Rev W. Douglas Hamilton B.D. (formally of St George’s North) and
Rev William C. Hewitt B.D. Dip.P.S. (formally of St. Luke’s)
We were honoured that at the General Assembly of 2009, Bill was elected to be the Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland. He was then known as the Right Reverand William C. Hewitt
Following the retirement of the Rev Douglas Hamilton in June 2009, the Rev William Armstong took the position of Minister until the Very Rev Hewitt returned in July 2010.
As from the beginning of July, the Very Rev. Bill has returned to join us. There is no doubt that he has returned with wonderful and thought provoking tales to relate.
