More Information

Craigiebuckler Parish Church is situated on Springfield Road, Aberdeen.  The building, designed by renowned Aberdeen architect A Marshall MacKenzie, was opened for worship in February 1883.  Of the many interesting features in the building the most important is the complete set of stained glass windows by William Wilson, Britain’s foremost post-war designed.

Today, worship is held at 11 am (10 am July and August) and follows a traditional pattern with a mixture of old and new hymns, other worship material, and the occasional participation of the church orchestra.  The atmosphere is relaxed, yet dignified.  Craigiebuckler caters for all ages with a full range of activities in the suite of halls.

St Columba’s Church Building is located in the suburbs of Bridge of Don on the northern side of the city of Aberdeen, within walking distance of Aberdeen University Student Halls of Residence, and not far from the city centre. The Church meets to worship on Sundays at 10am and at 6.30pm. Home Groups meet during the week. St Columba’s Church is a lively and growing Church, growing in love with Jesus and with each other. We’re not perfect but we are learning how to forgive one another!

What will you find if you join us one Sunday? You’ll find people just like you, single people, married people, young people and older people, students, children and teenagers, as well as people literally from all over the world. We have our hopes and fears, our faults and our weaknesses, just like you. You’ll fit right in! We have a large ministry team at St Columba’s and we focus on letting people use the gifts God has given them. Lots of us share in worship leading. The music is great and we think God likes it! That’s why we do it!! Our minister is a preacher who loves to teach us about the Bible. We also have a good programme for children and for teenagers, and a Youth Pastor who makes it all happen.

If you’re looking for a church family, and you’d like to know God better, then we’d love to meet you.

St.Columba’s Church: At the heart of the community with the heart of Jesus.

Open daily 9 am to 5 pm April to October inclusive; 10 am to 4 pm November to March inclusive.

Located in historic Old Aberdeen, the Cathedral Church of St Machar occupies a site where there has been Christian witness for almost 1500 years.
From 1131 until the Reformation of 1560, St Machar’s was the seat of the Roman Catholic bishops of Aberdeen. Episcopal bishops served there between 1610 and 1638 and again between 1662 and 1689. Since then St Machar’s has been a Presbyterian church.

Open every day of the year, St Machar’s draws around 30,000 visitors each year from all over the world. It is, however, not merely an impressive ancient building, but a living, vibrant church with a great deal of activity.

A cathedral is a place for the big occasion and St Machar’s hosts several of these each year. It is also a place for music and the acoustics at St Machar’s are flattering to choir, singer and instrumentalist. Sunday morning services are enhanced by anthems from the cathedral choir and many concerts take place within its walls.
On one Sunday each month (usually the last Sunday, but check the Cathedral website) from September to June the evening service takes the form of Music and Six when musical talent from Aberdeen ad elsewhere allows the congregation to appreciate and reflect on the Word addressed to them through music. On other Sunday evenings an examination of poems and prayers underlines a commitment to exploring the contribution of the Arts to one’s understanding of God and or world.

St Machar’s provides for all ages with a crèche, Sunday School, study groups and women’s group.
St Machar’s can be reached by bus Nos. 14, 19 and 20 and is a short walk from King Street buses 1 and 2.

After celebrating 50 years in the community of Kincorth in 2005, the congregation is now embarking on a new era of involvement and service, reaching the community with the Good News of Jesus Christ!

Our Morning Service is a friendly and relaxed service where we use a full range of modern and traditional hymns and songs. We are committed to worship that is relevant for all and use multi media forms in every service. Music and drama are complemented by video and film. Preaching is based on contemporary expository models.

The evening service is often more informal, with a “Cafe Style” approach! Discussion and participation can be part of this service and each month we have a communion service.

We are committed to re-energising our focus on prayer and bible study for all and are currently looking at developing an Older Adults Ministry, equipping people at every age to develop and deepen their faith.

As well as the range of activities held in the church each week which range from Carpet Bowls on Monday, Badminton of Tuesday, Guild fortnightly Tuesdays, – we have a range of youth organisations using the premises, for example Guides (Wednesdays), Girls’ Brigade (Thursdays), Boys’ Brigade (Friday).

We are also involved in an inter-church and community partnership called BLUE HORIZON with Our Lady of Aberdeen Roman Catholic Church, a youth and family project which is seeking to invest in the community. See www.bluehorizonyouth.org.uk for more information.
