Rev Lourens de Jager
WHAT HAPPENS ON SUNDAYS?
Our Sunday services are at 10.30am. This is a time for meeting with each other in fellowship, but above all it is a time for meeting with God: in song, music, silence and prayers, and especially to think of how the Bible tells us that God is involved in our world. Worship lasts for about an hour. Afterwards we chat over tea and coffee together in the hall. If you would like prayer for yourself or a loved one, one of our elders will be happy to pray with you, and anything you say will be kept private.
Children are welcome at all services. There is an induction loop system. Hymn books are available if you find it hard to read the screen, and we also have a Braille hymn book. Step-free access to the Willowbrae sanctuary is via the Church Centre entrance on Willowbrae Road.
We are delighted to have Rev Lourens de Jager as our new minister. However, the church is far more than the minister: it is a team in which everyone matters. We want to benefit from the insight, talents, energy and faith of all who are willing to offer them. But if you simply want to come to sit, you are equally welcome.

A very warm welcome to the fellowship at Meadowbank & Willowbrae Church!
We are a local gathering of the wider Church of Scotland. We believe that God, who is made known in Jesus, is active in the world and is with us through the Holy Spirit. Together we want our Christian faith to make a difference to the way we live.
We want our faith to be life-giving, both locally, and beyond. Why not join us and help us as we try together to be followers of Jesus?
Everyone is welcome to come to our church, and to join in our services and activities, whether on Sundays or through the week. If there is anything we can do to make it easier for you to participate, please let us know.
Upcoming events are listed on the calendar. We look forward to meeting you soon!
