St James the Less Episcopal Church, Penicuik

Are you inquiring, seeking, confident in your faith or quite shaky? We welcome you just as you are, a child of God.

We seek to help all grow in faith, love and action. Registered Scottish Charity: St James Episcopal Church Penicuik, SC011288 Our Vision: ‘Growing in faith, love and action’
Using the gifts God has given us, we shall continually work to be a more welcoming, loving and caring church family, and to be a source of light and hope to our neighbours. We commit to being more Christ-like in all we do. We

welcome all who wish to explore the Christian faith. We worship in the Anglican tradition, with a relaxed style of worshipping together whilst holding our traditions as a Scottish Episcopal Church. We have a liberal approach, exploring scripture and how our faith shapes our lives. We invite people to think for themselves, not to leave their brain at the door when they come in. We have a robed choir and an organ which is used for most of our services, excepting a second Sunday in the month. We run a Young Church in the Church Hall on the third Sunday of each month and have materials available every week for younger people to engage with at other times. We provides services for baptism, weddings (including same-sex), and funerals in our beautiful church.
