Welcome to Pencaitland Parish Church, set in the picturesque countryside of East Lothian. Our aim is to bring glory to God, by knowing Jesus Christ and making him known to others. In our many, varied activities, we aim to make people welcome and explain God's word so that all may understand and respond to its message. We welcome people at any stage of Christian understanding and hope to serve everyone who comes here.
If you would like to know more about us and the life of the Church family, have a look around our site, contact us or come along and join us in worship where we hope you will be made to feel most welcome.

Praise the Lord! Within three months (from September 2011) we've reached and exceeded our fundraising target of £70,000 to make the Church wind and watertight before the on-set of winter.
Thank you so much to all our donors and supporters!

Although we've reached our target for the current appeal, we're leaving the online giving in place so that people can renew their commitment to the Church, by way of a financial contribution to its ongoing maintenance.
Thank you.
At Pencaitland Parish Church we have a thriving and flourishing Sunday Club which is open to all children and young people of all ages. We all gather for the start of the Sunday church service and then after the children's talk and subsequent hymn the children leave the church and begin their Sunday Club sessions. This term (to Easter 2012) we are looking at the Gospel of Matthew, in particular the 'Sermon on the Mount'

Over thousands of years and throughout all cultures marriage has proved to be the most beneficial relationship for individuals and society. It provides the most stable, loving and secure environment for raising children. Children brought up by a mum and dad in a stable, married relationship are more likely to thrive emotionally, physically and educationally.
