Oasis of Peace in Open Doorway, LARCH Leith Walk

Our weekly meditative service Oasis of Peace takes place in the Open Doorway in LARCH Leith Walk building (the former Pilrig St Paul’s building).

Oasis of Peace is a short service where we sing some hymns, pray for others and have a reflection or discussion on a Bible passage. It takes place in the Church on Wednesday mornings from 10.15 and lasts around half an hour. We finish with tea/coffee and a chat.

If you would like to add any names to the prayer list, please speak to Rob or Joanne, or email Rob onamackenzie@churchofscotland.org.uk 

All are welcome to attend so if you’ve never been before, why not come along sometime? You will be given a very warm welcome.

We usually have a break in July and August and for a few weeks at the beginning of the year. Details and dates will be on the website.

Pastoral Care Team

Pastoral Care Team

We are looking for members to form a new Pastoral Care Team.  Team members themselves will not be expected to undertake all pastoral care but rather to coordinate the pastoral care needs of the congregation.  Their remit includes:

  • Hospital Visits
  • Care Home Visits
  • Home Communion
  • Prayer requests
  • Flower deliveries
  • Christmas Gifts – currently Shortbread and Calendars
  • Cards on special birthdays and anniversaries
  • Open Door Days – at LARCH Leith Walk (formerly Pilrig St Paul’s)
  • Care Van – run in conjunction with Bethany Trust which provides support to homeless people

Training will be given as required (such as Bereavement training) and members will be well-supported.
