Scottish Episcopal Church in Leith Edinburgh
St James is a vibrant, inclusive church and community hub in Leith. Through our Building Links campaign, we’re raising funds to ensure our building continues to serve as a welcoming space for all. See our Giving page for more details.
We are an inclusive church which welcomes and celebrates human diversity in all its richness, allowing a safe space for people to ask questions and grow in their faith and spirituality.
We believe the church should follow in Jesus footsteps and have a prophetic edge which speaks out against injustice and its causes, and having the courage in speaking truth to power.
We believe in celebrating creativity in all its varied expressions, using the Arts as a way of challenging injustice and bringing life, beauty and humanity into a world filled with struggle & pain.
We believe in meeting people where they are at, walking alongside them, developing relationships and partnerships with groups in order to create or encourage life giving communities built around compassion, mutuality and justice.
