Reviews of The Church of Scotland

S. G.

Very surprised to discover that I could review an office! I have to say that having worked in the building and having met my wife here I am happy to give a five star review. I suspect that some of the other reviews are for another location (St Mary's Cathedral is one candidate).

A. G.

Great place, fantastic sermon, and passionate preacher. However, too many pictures of some bearded man being murdered on the walls. Quite depressing in the end.

A place I know well as I work here... The Church of Scotland seeks to inspire the people of Scotland and beyond with the Good News of Jesus Christ through enthusiastic worshipping, witnessing, nurturing and serving communities. The Church of Scotland is one of the largest organisations in the country. We have over 330,000 members, with more regularly involved in local congregations and our work. We have around 800 ministers serving in parishes and chaplaincies, supported by more than 2,000 professional and administrative staff. Most of our parishes are in Scotland, but we also have churches in England, Europe and overseas. The Church of Scotland plays a pivotal role in Scottish society and works with communities worldwide. The Church of Scotland's governing system is presbyterian, which means that no one person or group within the Church has more influence or say than any other. The Church does not have one person who acts as the head of faith, as that role is the Lord God's. Its supreme rule of faith and life is through the teachings of the Bible. Church of Scotland government is organised on the basis of courts, mainly along lines set between 1560 and 1690. Each of these courts has committees, which may include other members of the Church, and at national level employ full-time staff. Our councils and committee pages include more about their work and remit. At a local level – the parish – the court is a kirk session. Kirk sessions oversee the local congregation and its parish, and consist of elders presided over by a minister. At district level, the court is a presbytery. Presbyteries consist of all the ministers in the district and an equal number of elders, along with members of the diaconate (a form of ordained ministry, usually working in a complementary role in a ministry team in both parish and industry sector contexts). There are 46 presbyteries across Scotland, England, Europe, and Jerusalem. At national level, the court is the highest court of the Kirk, the General Assembly. The General Assembly consists of around 400 ministers, 400 elders, and members of the diaconate, all representing the presbyteries. Visit our General Assembly page for more information about how it functions.

Amazing church

(Translated) Leaving aside the religious aspect, this is, in my humble opinion, a remarkable historic building with a masterpiece ceiling. Also curious are the colorful and different cushions! (Original) Tralasciando l'aspetto religioso, trattasi, a mio modesto parere, di un notevole edificio storico con un soffitto capolavoro. Curiosi anche i cuscini colorati e tutti diversi!
