We are a church who loves Edinburgh and loves Jesus. Join us on Sundays or during the week all over the city.
We gather three times on a Sunday to hang out and spend time worshipping God, reading the bible, listening to a talk and sharing some stories together. Come and join us.
We are excited to be back with season 3 of Rooted. This term, we're following our sermon series entitled "Follow me", looking at the character and qualities of leadership that we discover in the life and ministry of Jesus. Find out who our first guest was at www.centralchurch.co.uk/rooted/

This week we have been praying and fasting together as a church - seeking God for our city and our world. TONIGHT we’re going to break our fast together at Encounter. Come join us for some food at 7.15pm, then we’ll spend some time worshipping, praying for one another and our world, and creating space to hear from God.

Esther was enslaved as a little girl. She was born in a small village but needed to move out of her parents’ home to be able to go to school. At the age of 7, she was trafficked to a remote island on Lake Volta in Ghana by someone that her family, who lived in poverty, thought they could trust. For ten years she was forced to work long days in the household, sometimes going to the lake to fish herself even though she didn’t know how to swim. She was brutally beaten and abused by her slave owner’s family and became dangerously malnourished. She has scars in her arms and legs from preparing and processing the fish. Slavery is a very complex issue, entangled with high levels of poverty, inequality and need. Ten million children are in slavery around the world today - twenty times the population of Edinburgh. It is not an easy problem solve, but Esther’s story changed when the local authorities, partnering with International Justice Mission rescued her. As part of our Just Christmas Campaign this year, we want to support IJM - your gifts will send rescue to children trapped right now. You will enable IJM teams to find children in slavery and work with police to rescue them. You can sed your gift tomorrow at our Sunday gathering or by clicking here https://www.give.net/JustChristmas2019

We'd love to see you at our Cristingle gathering this Sunday! We'll find out what a candle stuck in an orange has to do with Jesus, and how we can take his light home with us to share it with our families, friends and colleagues. Remember we're kicking off at 11am!
