We will be having our monthly Messy Church Friday 24th January 2020 from 5:30pm-7:30pm at the church, 7 Craighall Road. We will begin our time together with dinner before exploring the Bible together with all ages and stages of life across various crafts, game, songs, and creative reflection.
This month we will be learning about Zaccheaus meeting Jesus. All are welcome. We are happy to cater to dietary needs, if possible, an email in advance to Cassie.Abousamak@gmail.com is always appreciated so that we can make sure we have something suitable.
Newhaven Church run three SU Groups to help children and young people explore the Christian faith in an extracurricular way as part of the Curriculum for Excellence. Our group at Trinity Academy will be looking at the NUA series to explore some essential questions of the Christian faith and spend a bit of time exploring the meaning of Advent in November and December. All young people welcome.
Did you know that part of my role as children’s and youth worker at Newhaven Church is to support our local churches in the Greater Leith Area in their commitment to working with children, youth, and families? With this hat on, may I invite you to our first Pray, Inspire, Encourage on Saturday 9th November from 12:30pm-2:30pm at North Fort Café. This month we will eat lunch together; pray together; look at what it means for our faith community to ‘grow young’; and think about how we make the most out the season of Advent. All FREE! RSVP required by Wednesday 6th November to Cassie.Abousamak@gmail.com
At Newhaven Church we are a part of the fantastic community that is the Leith Churches’ Holiday Club.

We hope you can join us for our second ever Messy Church as we look at what it means to Love Our Neighbour. All are welcome. Dinner will be served as part of our time together. RSVP not necessary, but a wee note with any food allergies in advance can help the catering team. Email. cassie.abousamak@gmail.com.
In amidst the warm Saturday sunshine was the crunching and smell of autumn leaves. There is something beautiful about Edinburgh as the seasons change, in the dying back of the leaves and trees moving into a state of dormancy, we get such beauty of vivid colours and delicious fruit to eat. Come celebrate God’s creation with us on Sunday 6th October starting at 10:30am and ponder a bit about Tearfund’s theme ‘Less is More.’ At our all-age service this day we will be taking a dry goods collection for the Northeast Edinburgh foodbank, our annual offering for Tearfund, and our annual big bake will occur with the theme ‘5 ingredients or less’ just after the service alongside brunch! Do bring containers if you wish to take baking away. Please see the fliers below for full details.
Three words that elicit a range of emotions! Whether you are chomping at the bit or nervous, relieved or reticent, we would love to support you in these three words! Look out for our prayer gate which will be available to add prayers from Monday 12th August through Sunday 1st September and please do join in in the following:
