To find us: We are at “Holy Corner” on the A702 about 1½miles south of the West End of Princes Street.
A little about us... Our Church was built at the end of the 19th Century to accommodate the rapidly growing population of south Edinburgh. Building work commenced in 1875 but the Church was not consecrated until 1908 when all debt had been cleared. It is built in the French Gothic style of the 13th century and is scheduled by the Fine Arts Commission. It incorporates many features of considerable interest, both inside and out. The architect, Mr. Hippolyte J. Blanc, R.S.A. was a member of the congregation until his death in 1917. Our aim is to be an open church, welcoming doubters as well as those committed in faith and giving people freedom to choose their own level of involvement. We hope to offer an accepting environment where people may ask questions, nurture each other, develop their own spirituality and above all meet God. Worship at Christ Church is essentially traditional, dignified Anglican liturgy. We are currently trying out different forms of worship at the 18.30 Sunday evening service. There are many other activities during the week for people of all ages. We work closely in friendship with the other Christian organisations and Churches in our area. It is our desire to reach out with all people of goodwill to share God's love as we serve the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs of the local community, other peoples and the whole created order.
