Who We Are
Welcome to Axis Church — where life changes direction.
Our name says it all: an axis is the centre point where everything turns. For us, that centre is Jesus Christ. He holds everything together, and when lives pivot toward Him, everything changes — hope is restored, healing begins, and purpose is found.
Axis Church is more than a building — we’re a movement of people following Jesus and making Him known. Whether you’re just curious about faith or have walked with God for years, you’ll find a place here to belong, grow, and be transformed.
Our vision is simple: changed lives that change lives.
Here’s what matters most to us:
• Jesus at the Centre – Everything we do turns around Christ.
• Life Change is Our Mission – We exist to see lives transformed by the gospel.
• Generations Together – Every generation matters, every generation belongs.
• Excellence in Worship – We prepare with passion and lead with authenticity.
• Outward in Love – We love our community, our nation, and the nations.
So wherever you are in your story, know this: God has a new direction for your life. And at Axis Church, you don’t walk that road alone.

Mike and Susan Pirie
Mike and Susan have called the Falkirk area home for almost 30 years. Mike, originally from the North-East, is an ex-fisherman, while Susan grew up in Ayrshire as the daughter of a pastor and has been part of church life all her life. Married in 1999, they settled here and raised their family, putting down deep roots in the community they love.
Throughout most of their married life, Mike and Susan have faithfully served in church ministry. They’ve held leadership roles, led and resourced men’s and women’s ministries, helped plant and pastor churches, and taught across a wide range of churches throughout Scotland’s central belt. Mike has also served for several years as a sports chaplain with a Scottish Premiership football club and now continues that work with one of Scotland’s leading basketball teams.
They are passionate about building and growing healthy church communities and carry a deep desire to see God’s Kingdom flourish across Scotland.

We meet every Sunday at the Dundas Community Centre just off Oxgang Road in Grangemouth FK3 9EF (right behind the Social Work Offices). As soon as you come up the ramp and through the doors, you’ll be greeted with a warm welcome and a fresh cup of coffee. From there, you can make your way through to the space where we gather for church.
The photos below will give you a feel for Who we are, Who we belong to, and the purpose that brings us together each week.
We have lots of parking space and accessibility features.
