Glasgow Bach Cantata Project

06/05/2026

Glasgow City Mission is celebrating its 200th anniversary. As the main cause that we raise money for, a small group from the Glasgow Bach Cantata Project will be performing the opening movement of BWV 140 at this service.

The service is our opportunity to collectively and formally celebrate and give thanks to God for 200 years of provision in Glasgow and beyond. Fittingly, the service takes place in Glasgow’s oldest building and attendees will be granted an opportunity to explore the magnificent building during the hour prior to the service.

The service will consist of sung worship, prayer, the sharing of testimonies and a Word delivered by former Glasgow City Mission staff member David Harper.

Some photos from Sunday's St Matthew Passion at the Royal Conservatoire with Michael Bawtree. A total joy to perform. As one of the singers commented later '‘While the world was - literally - burning, a few hundred of us in a Glasgow hall had our souls and hearts focused on more eternal things."
