We are delighted that the Bristo Community Concert Band is considering relocating their weekly practice venue to the Craigsbank Hall. Anyone interested in meeting the band is invited to come along this Monday evening, 3 March, at 7.30pm.

‘We are a non-auditioning Edinburgh concert band who enjoy playing and performing a wide range of music together. We are open to over 16s of all abilities, however, we strongly recommend that interested players are at least grade 5 standard.’

Easter Sunday 2024 brought communities from the streets of Craigsbank and East Craigs – and much further afield – together for a very special Cafe Church service. Those who gathered did so round tables of friends, family and strangers, and enjoyed baskets filled with hot cross buns, scones, chocolate-crispie easter cakes, coffee and tea, jams and honey. They enjoyed too the company across generations, heartfelt prayer, the sound of young voices from Junior Music Makers AND three baptisms. The children were swept up in daffodil and seed planting and a superb easter egg hunt in the sanctuary. All left uplifted.

‘Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it.’

Hebrews 13:2
