Taking place at 2.00pm on Sat 4 April near the elephant sculpture in Princes Street Gardens, this is a free and accessible event and everyone is welcome. It is a very moving retelling of the Easter story, designed by Cutting Edge Theatre and Easter Play Trust with both families and adults in mind.

And just like that…

You can listen right here to the official Basis of Union acceptance by Presbytery. This is a joyful, long anticipated (but at times quite painful), future-pointing moment in the story of our congregation and our sincere thanks go to all on the steering group, to Rev Alan Childs and to Elaine Thomson our session clerk for getting us to this point.

We now look forward to joining with Alan and Rev Moira McDonald in team ministry and with our neighbours from Corstorphine Old Parish in a newly formed and united parish: Edinburgh Corstorphine Old and New, from 1 January 2026.

Come and join the fun of Network. The following programme all takes place on Monday evenings with a 7.30pm start in Craigsbank halls (with the exception of the Christmas meal – details to follow).
