Did you know there is a 24-hour Christian radio station based in Edinburgh? We didn’t - until now! Great to meet some of the team from @heartsonglive1 and talk about how we can work together to promote #easterplay2021

You know the strangest thing about doing a photoshoot with an actor dressed as Jesus standing on top of a bin in Princes Street Gardens? The people who DON'T look surprised! #EasterPlay2021 #EasterIsComing

Due to the ongoing covid-19 situation, we have decided not to mount an Easter Play in Princes Street Gardens this year. Instead, we will be spending our time creating exclusive online content which will be available at Easter. Watch this space for details!

Sadly, due to the COVID-19 situation, we are announcing the cancellation of this year’s Easter Play. We want to thank all those who have put so much work into the production so far. We will be back! Stay well, friends.

This is really worth a Friday read #Itsoktolaugh

Delighted to welcome five new members and adherents to our fellowship during today’s morning service!

From Abide With Me to Sisters Are Doing It For Themselves: Bishop Anne Dyer spoke to the BBC's Cameron Stout about her secular childhood, coming to faith, facing hurtful rejection as a woman, the music that has inspired her, and her hopes for the future of the church.

Lent Breakfast Studies start on Sunday 29th March and run for three weeks through to Easter Sunday. These Faith Sharing Breakfasts are open to anyone & aim to encourage us to talk and think about #Lent and #Easter. The studies will be held in the church from 9.00 to 9.45am.

Another exciting opportunity to be involved this Easter...

What a day for a reccy in Princes Street Gardens by some members of our steering group! #readyforeaster

I increasingly find myself wondering if the true seedbed of modern democracy is less the example of classical antiquity and more the Christian doctrine that all human beings are created equally in the image of God.
