Congregation

We are committed to following Christ all through the week. 

As a Church of Scotland congregation, on a Sunday we worship in the Presbyterian tradition. We are also in ecumenical partnership with St Columba’s-by-the-Castle, and Augustine United Church. We welcome people of all faiths and none. We are a gathered congregation and welcome members from all parts of Edinburgh and further afield.

Full details on all our worship services can be found on the Services page.

Through the work of The Society of Friends of the Kirk of Greyfriars, we welcome the thousands of tourists who visit the Church and Kirkyard every year. From April to October, the Kirk welcomers host our Visitor Centre Monday to Friday 10.30 - 16.30 and Saturday 11.00 - 14.00. Full details of our opening hours can be found in our visitor's section.

Threads

To find out what sort of people are involved in the Church of Scotland, have a look at this wee film about a new resource called Threads. Episode 4 of this film, starting at 7.48 minutes in, features Richard Frazer, our minister talking about how we hope to live out our Christian lives here in Edinburgh.
