A warm welcome from the Angles Way Filling Station team. Our name is inspired by the long- distance regional footpath, the Angles Way.

‘And the Lord will guide you continually
and satisfy your desire in scorched places
and make your bones strong;
and you shall be like a watered garden,
like a spring of water,
whose waters do not fail.
And your ancient ruins shall be rebuilt;
you shall raise up the foundations of many generations;
you shall be called the repairer of the breach,
the restorer of streets to dwell in.’ Isaiah 58:11-12

Our desire is that you would come and linger in worship in the presence of Jesus.

At times, sessions may be more creative, meditative or reflective in nature and at other times with more of a teaching focus. However, Jesus will always be glorified as King of kings and Lord of lords and the Word of God upheld.

There is always the opportunity for prayer ministry, if you should desire it. Should you wish to have further details on any speaker, you are most welcome to contact us via our email address.

We hope that the speaker planned for May – our friend Matt who is a mission partner with Interserve and a cross-cultural worker in Birmingham – will be able to tell us about his amazing work at a Filling Station meeting later in the year.

Join us for our next Equip & Empower: Prophetic Symbolism in Scripture

Scripture is full of fascinating imagery and meaning and connections. Come and explore the prophetic symbolism of Scripture as we dive into the depths of His word.

Hellie & Simon will be teaching and ministering on:

• Characters and character types (Joseph, etc.)
• Symbolism for God and how He appears, (gate, door, hen)
• How we can be described as sheep, children, numbers colours, animals, physical locations.

Psalm 78:2-3, I will declare wise sayings; I will speak mysteries from the past — things we have heard and known and that our ancestors have passed down to us. 

Led by Simon Baddeley & Hellie Glynn.

What is FillingStation@home?

Our initial vision for FillingStation@home was to serve and resource small groups across the country.

However the majority of people who have been part of @home over the last year have done so as individuals or couples.

It also became clear that the technology for really good live worship is still not here. High quality live music requires more bandwidth than Zoom seems to be able to deliver!

Rather than pressing on with the original vision regardless, we decided to embrace what @home has become. To make @home more sustainable for 2024 we have moved from bi-monthly to monthly, with curated pre-recorded worship and without the watch again facility.

If you would be interested in finding out more and potentially joining this evening, see here. Or contact us for the Zoom link.

Speaking and leading worship – Chris and Von Laughlin

Frequent worship leaders for us at the Riverside Centre; this time also speaking.
Come along for an encouraging treat !

We are please to announce the official launch date of the new Filling Station Clyde Valley.  This will take place on Thursday 22 May, at 7.30pm (Doors open 7pm).  We will be meeting on the 3rd Thursday of the month (after May), taking a break in July.  Hope to see you there and to be with us to experience the Holy Spirit at work in our community.

Our guest speaker for our launch will be Rev Kaye Gardiner.

On May 22nd we are looking forward to welcoming Trevor Jones from South Yorkshire Filling Station.

We warmly invite you to join us.

More details to follow.

In 1988, while driving alone down a quiet country lane, Simon Lambourne had a life-changing encounter with Jesus. In that moment, he welcomed the Lord into his life, was filled with the Holy Spirit, and experienced true freedom for the first time. That encounter transformed everything.

Simon went on to serve in leadership, preaching, and worship leading in his local Baptist church – even leading worship for the renowned German evangelist Reinhard Bonnke at a UK rally. In 1997, Simon felt God call him to return to the “coalface of life,” stepping into a successful career in sales, eventually becoming Sales Director at a Shropshire recruitment firm.

But ministry never left his heart. In 2014, Simon accepted a call to pastor a local Baptist church, where he served faithfully until 2023. Now retired and living in beautiful North Wales, Simon continues to serve the wider body of Christ through the Maranatha Community, occasionally leading worship at their events.

A lover of Indian food and a regular at the gym, Simon brings a rich blend of life experience, spiritual wisdom, and a heart fully surrendered to Jesus.

We can’t wait to hear what God has placed on Simon’s heart to share with us!

This Month’s Guest Speaker: Rev. Maggie Lane ️

We are delighted to welcome Rev. Maggie Lane as our guest speaker at this month’s Filling Station!

Maggie stepped down as Minister of Kirkliston Parish Church of Scotland in September 2019 to pursue a more itinerant prophetic ministry—supporting leaders, writing, and listening to God’s heart for this nation. Although her plans were paused due to the pandemic and a season of ill health, God has been at work in the waiting.

She believes the Lord is shaking His Church free from the idols that have subtly taken root, preparing her for the days to come. This is a call to realignment, restoration, and readiness.

With a rich background in:

• Hospitality management

• Community development

• Counselling

• And decades in parish ministry and teaching,
  Maggie brings both depth and authenticity to her message.

She is currently part of the leadership team at Gillespie Memorial Church in Dunfermline, where she serves as a teaching pastor. Her theology is reformed, evangelical, and charismatic—deeply rooted in the Word and Spirit, held in balance.

Maggie’s heart is for healing and restoration—of both people and land—and she carries a strong gifting in teaching, prophecy, and equipping the Body of Christ.

Come expectant to hear from the Lord and to be encouraged, challenged, and renewed.
