Weekly Groups
Friday Fellowship – meets weekly in the Kirk Centre on Friday mornings
We try to improve our knowledge of the Bible by reading our way slowly through a chosen book and discussing what it means. We believe it’s important to get to know each other better and to support one another, and we pray together, and of course have a cup of coffee. There are usually some laughs along the way!
Fortnightly Groups
Pathfinders – meets fortnightly on Tuesday evenings in various homes
We are a group of mixed ages and interests, who are keen to deepen our faith and our understanding of scripture through Bible reading, commentaries and inspiring books. We believe that as a group we should be triangular, looking always upwards to God, inwards in terms of fellowship and support and outward in giving service where possible. We meet at times other than Tuesday evenings as the spirit guides us.
Thrive – meets fortnightly in the Kirk Centre on Wednesday evenings
Thrive is a vibrant link group that is not afraid to tackle the challenging faith questions. Diverse in age and background, we thrive on good discussions and on praying for and supporting each other.
New Habits – meets fortnightly on Wednesday evenings in various homes
Growing out of Big Alpha and Holy Habits courses, this group meets to study a passage from the Bible and share and pray together.
The Cornerstone Group – meets fortnightly on Wednesday or Thursday evenings (Wednesday at the moment) in Fairmilehead
We are a friendly group, learning and praying together. Our Bible studies can be illuminating and challenging – discussion with each other can often make us see anew aspects of Christian life and faith, and we all value the support of one another in prayer. We enjoy our fellowship and would welcome others joining us as we share our faith journey.
Vista Group – meets fortnightly on Thursday evenings in Kirk Park
We are a group of mixed ages. Our usual meeting place provides a wide vista of the city of Edinburgh and the sky above, symbolic of our desire to find a fresh view of God and the people around us. Our meetings centre around Bible study, in which we do not shy away from open discussions of challenging issues that come our way. Fellowship and sharing our experiences is an important part of our group life.
Linked to the Lord – meets fortnightly on Thursday evenings in Liberton Grange
We are a new group formed from mainly Alpha folk, diverse in age. We enjoy studying God’s word, supporting each other and praying. We also have a lot of fun too. We enjoy a cuppa and a chat and have grown in friendship since meeting. We have a Whatsapp Group to support each other in between our meetings.
If you want to join one of these groups – where we meet together to grow upwardly, inwardly and outwardly – or just want more information, contact Rink van Dijke (rink@talktalk.net) or Caroline Barlee (barlee@blueyonder.co.uk).
