Worship

Gathering to encounter God

AUC Community Worship Service - Sundays 11am-12pm

Communion 1st & 3rd Sundays of each month.

Our worship services offer space to find peace, to hear the Christian Story told for today and to open our lives to hope. They can include elements of silence, prayer, singing, bread and wine, preaching, Bible readings, music, interviews and discussion. The tone of our services is informal within a liturgical pattern which we follow most weeks.

We celebrate Baptism of Adults and Children as part of our Sunday service.

Our Bible readings follow the Revised Common Lectionary.

After each service there is time for coffee and chat.

Our worship includes all ages and offers a program of activities for children called Junior Church.

Children are welcome to share fully in communion, as is anyone else who would like to. Our table is open to all who would like to receive.

Everyone is welcome.

Our worship varies a little week by week, but for details of a typical service pattern please refer to the word document under related documents to the right of the screen ('Service 1 May 2011').

NiteKirk - Third Friday of the month at Greyfriars Kirk 8pm-12am

NiteKirk offers a place for stillness, prayer and reflection, with the Kirk open from 8pm until around midnight. There are occasional services and liturgies, prayer in the style of [Taizé], readings and music. There are volunteers you can chat with over a drink of the famous warm and spicy apple juice, or you can just take time to sit and think. NiteKirk is a joint venture between our Ecumenical partners and the Church of Scotland Board of Mission and Discipleship.
