How Can I Get Involved at Ps & Gs Church?
Updated
You can get involved at Ps & Gs Church in four main ways: praying, giving, serving on a team, and engaging with the church's strategy. Ps & Gs describes prayer as part of its DNA, relies on the generous gifts of its congregation to fund its vision, and asks anyone who calls the church home to serve as part of a team. Each of these areas has its own page on the website with more detail.
Praying
Ps & Gs states that prayer is part of its DNA as Christians and is central to everything it does, including its current activities and future direction. The church says it is passionate about praying for God's guidance and wisdom.
If you want to join in this side of church life, the website has a dedicated "Praying" section you can visit to find out more.
Giving
Ps & Gs says it relies on the generous gifts of its congregation to bring its vision and strategy to life in Edinburgh and beyond. The church invites people to prayerfully and carefully consider how they might contribute.
The site does not publish specific giving amounts, methods, or financial details on the page summarised here. If you want to give, start with the "Giving" section of the website for the current options.
Serving: Join a Team
Ps & Gs encourages each person in the gifts God has given them, and asks that anyone who calls Ps & Gs home serves as part of a team. This is framed as a shared expectation rather than an optional extra.
To get started, visit the "Serving: Join a team" page, which explains how to play your part.
Strategy 2025-2030
Every few years, Ps & Gs prayerfully considers how best to seek God and make him known in Edinburgh, and builds a strategy around that. The current one covers 2025-2030.
The church invites people to find out how to get involved and play their part. The "Strategy 2025-2030" page is the place to see the direction and where you might fit in.
Other Ways to Connect
Beyond these four areas, the church lists several regular activities that can also be entry points into church life:
- Sunday services – 10.00 am (with groups for 0-15 year olds), 12.00 pm (liturgical communion service), and 7.00 pm. The site notes that service times were changing from 10th January.
- Saturday Meal – a safe place for people in need to enjoy a meal from 5.00 pm to 6.00 pm.
- Connect Groups – midweek expressions of church, described as part of the vision to help people become whole life disciples. You can find a group through the website.
- Whole Life Nights – starting in September; the site links to more information.
- Babies and Toddlers – the main space is set up for children from 0 to pre-school age to play.
- Calendar – lists upcoming events and courses.
