Newhaven Church is a congregation of the Church of Scotland based in Newhaven, Edinburgh.  We are a caring group of Christians committed to serving Christ, each other and the community.

We’re an active church, not restricted by the walls of our building, and hold a number of events both within the church, around the parish area, and further afield. We hold church services every Sunday at 10.30am, and have Communion Services on the last Sunday of each month. We hold family friendly All Age Services on the first Sunday of each month. You will find a warm greeting at any of these services, where we would be delighted to have you visit us.

In addressing the meaning of the passages, he explored the parallels between Jesus and Moses.

On By Lesley-Anne WeirIn Dates for your Diary, News and events, NoticesLeave a comment

The Annual Stated Meeting will take place directly after morning service on Sunday 17th March 2019. This year the format will differ slightly from previous years. The annual accounts will be received on the 17th but a separate meeting, to be fixed, will look at both the annual report of the church’s activities and vision for the future.

Copies of the accounts are now available from the church foyer.
