Christ Church is an Open Church - open daily -
Christ Church, Kincardine O’Neil is a small Scottish Episcopal Church in the middle of Royal Deeside. It is a Scottish Charity, Number SC001675.
Sadly we have to report that Rev. Dr. David Greenwood is leaving us to return with his family to the USA.
While many claim that small rural churches cannot survive without ripping out the pews, and singing happy-clappy hymns projected on a screen under David's leadership and somewhat against the trend Christ Church has thrived with continuous growth in the number of annual communicants. We are strong on traditional services but have recently started to incorporate more modern language forms which should make the services more accessible. Christ Church is an enormously friendly and welcoming church which strives to serve its role in the community as the only operational church in the village. All are welcome.
So why don't YOU come along and be part of what's happening here?
Christ Church has a strong plan in place for an interregnum with our experienced lay ministry team.
Christ Church liaises with the other Scottish Episcopal Churches in middle and upper Deeside. Occasionally, as holidays and other circumstances demand, services are taken by outside clergy or by laymen from our congregation.
