Care Groups & Fellowship

The purpose of Care Groups is to help us care for each other in a more focused way and to help people in the church to get to know each other better.

The groups have a mix of ages/backgrounds within them, so they provide an opportunity to get to know people from a cross-section of the church. Each group meets on the last Wednesday of each month for a home bible study and prayer time.

There are 2 coordinators in each group who have responsibility to ensure that the groups function well.

SU Muirhouse - Primary and D.I.M.E., TJF

Members of the church at Bruntsfield have been leading SU groups in the Muirhouse/Pilton area of Edinburgh for many years, and this continues still. There are two Primary age groups which meet on weekday afternoons after school to learn about the Bible, through games, activities, crafts, videos and Bible studies.

D.I.M.E. is a Scripture Union activity for Children in 1st to 6th year in the Muirhouse/Pilton area. This group is a follow on for those who have already attended an S.U. group in their local primary school. The leaders are from a variety of churches across Edinburgh, with several from here at Bruntsfield.The group meets weekly on a Thursday evening at Muirhouse Old Kirk for bible teaching, games and activities.

These SU groups can always use more leader help, so if you are interested, please let us know!
