First Minister Arlene Foster visited the Shankill area on February 4, and one of the venues she called into was St Andrew’s, Glencairn.

Pupils from Harmony Primary School welcomed Mrs Foster and presented her with flowers.

Community groups from Glencairn, Springmartin and Highfield were all represented, and the First Minister took time to talk to local people, including the Rev Emma Rutherford, Curate with Special Responsibilities for Glencairn and Whiterock.

Parishioners also turned out for the visit, and Evangelists Karen Webb and Stephen Whitten from the Connor / Church Army North Belfast Centre of Mission also attended.
