Service times

The morning service is held in the main Church building in Saxe Coburg Street. The service is followed by tea and coffee, which is served in the church halls at the back of the church. A varied programme of evening services is scheduled between October and Easter. Some services are held in the Church (6pm) and others take place at a local sheltered housing complex (6.30pm). Please check the calendar on the Church Diary page of the website for further details.
We welcome visitors at all of these services.

Lunch is provided at 12.15pm, followed by a short, informal service at 1pm. All are welcome.
Information for visitors
Welcome
When you enter the church a member of our welcome team will greet you and give you a hymn book and a service sheet. The service sheet gives details of the morning service and also contains notices of other forthcoming events.
​
Children
Children are very welcome at Stockbridge and play an important role in all our services. They participate in the first part of each service before going through to Young Church in the halls behind the church. At some services such as Christmas and Easter they stay in the church for the full service with plenty of activities to keep them busy!
​
Holy Communion
We celebrate Communion on the last Sunday of each month.
Music
Music plays an important part of our worship and we are fortunate in having Marion Lees McPherson as our Director of Music. The choir meets on Sunday mornings at 10am. They are always keen to welcome enthusiastic singers, whether or not they read music. Please speak to Marion after the service for more information.
​
Refreshments
Tea and coffee are served at the end of the service. This takes place in the church halls at the back of the building. The side door to the left of the church leads you there, or you can just follow the crowds.
​
Fair Trade
There is a fair trade stall at the back of the Church.
The church is an accredited Eco-congregation.
Offering
During the service an offering is taken so that regular members of the congregation can contribute to the life and work of our church and our various projects. Offering bags are passed along each row and visitors are welcome to contribute but should not feel obliged to do so.
​
Access
There is an induction loop system available for people who use hearing aids. Flat access to the building is through the side gate on the North (Glenogle Baths) side of the building. There is ample space for wheelchairs within the building, and a wheelchair accessible toilet is also available. Toilets are situated in the corridor which leads to the halls (through the door on the pulpit side of the church).
