Edinburgh needs hope
Edinburgh is a city we love, but it is also a city that desperately needs hope. Around 95% of people in our city do not know Jesus, church attendance has been declining for decades, and many existing congregations are ageing. At the same time, thousands of new homes are planned within a short distance of our new building at Lochside.
We believe God has placed us here for such a time as this—not simply to occupy a building, but to help more people find the living hope that is found in Jesus Christ. In a city where loneliness, anxiety and isolation are increasingly common, we long to be a church that welcomes people, serves our community, and shares the good news of Jesus with the next generation.
Hope For Our City
Edinburgh is a city where 95% don’t yet have the living hope that comes from Jesus and our mission is to change that: we exist to multiply followers of Jesus.
We have completed the purchase of this fantastic new space. Join with us as we turn this into our home over the coming months.

If you are not in a position to give right now, you can pledge for the project here. This is a commitment to give and can be fulfilled anymore over the next 36 months. This is a great option if you want to give regularly rather than in one go. Remember to add GiftAid if you are eligible
Seize The Opportunity
God has given us an extraordinary opportunity to secure a strategic home for our growing church and a long‑term Kingdom asset for generations to come. We believe this building will accelerate our mission, bless our community, and serve Jesus' wider church in the city and beyond.
