'Uniting in serving God, by welcoming you, sharing His love and reaching out in service to our communities'
We are a Church of Scotland United Charge situated in the beautiful Scottish Borders. The United Charge is one congregation worshipping in two church buildings each close to the River Tweed, which flows through the four parishes. Services are currently rotated between our churches.

As our regular worshippers will be aware, our Charge is currently vacant following the retirement of Rev Sheila Moir last September. Dryburgh District Churches Sunday services continue to be held in rotation. A Nominating Committee has now been elected by the congregation. They will report to the Kirk Session on progress in finding a new minister. Nominating Committees in the Church of Scotland are tasked with discerning where God is leading the congregation and identifying the minister called to serve. Their work is strictly guided by the Church’s vacancy procedures and Presbytery regulations.
In the meantime Kirk Session continue to be grateful for guidance from our Interim Moderator, Rev Mike Taylor. email: [email protected]
