Where all are welcome
Since 1988, our congregation has called Canonmills home. Previously a
penny school attended by Robert Louis Stevenson, then a mission hall and a
base for the 46th Edinburgh Company of the Boys’ Brigade, today the historic
building is home to our vibrant church. We are an open-minded and
ecumenical church which operates within the Baptist principles of
independence and freedom of thought, welcoming people from all
backgrounds.

Join us in Worship
Ours is a ministry in which each member shares, where the deacons and congregation together participate actively as they are able. Our services are led by visiting ministers, from many branches of the Christian faith, who provide a rich variety of worship.
We can assure you of a warm reception – friends and newcomers alike. You are most welcome to join us. There are no strangers here.
We currently meet for worship at 11am on the 2nd and 4th Sunday of each month and information can be found on our Worship page.
Our Events
When we have public events planned at Canonmills Church, details will be available on our Events page.
Make sure to follow us on Facebook for all the latest updates.
Venue Hire
The church hall – originally the one-room schoolhouse – is perfect for larger events, parties and groups whilst our coffee room provides a relaxed environment for smaller bookings.
“The best things are nearest: breath in your nostrils, light in your eyes, flowers at your feet, duties at your hand, the path of God just before you. Then do not grasp at the stars, but do life’s plain common work as it comes certain that daily duties and daily bread are the sweetest things of life.”
