St. Jude's Church is a place of worship of the Free Presbyterian Church of Scotland on Woodlands Road in Glasgow, Scotland. It is the largest church building of this denomination, constructed circa 1874-6 for the Woodlands United Presbyterian Church, later Woodlands United Free Church. The Free Presbyterian Bookroom is located in back rooms at the church.

In the early 20th century, in a previous building also known as St Jude's, the name given to it by its previous owners, the congregation had an attendance of over 1,000,[1] and was the largest Free Presbyterian congregation.

A well-known pastor of the church was Donald Maclean, who served the church from 1960 until his retirement in 2000.
