We offer a warm welcome to anyone who would like to join us for worship on a Sunday morning at the Open Door. There are usually about twenty present in person. After Meeting for Worship, which lasts one hour, we have coffee/tea and time to chat.

The Open Door is a friendly space at the top of Morningside Road, just opposite Morningside clock. Bus numbers 5, 11, 15, 16, 23 and 36 stop very close by ('Morningside Station' stop). On weekdays it runs a number of regular services, particularly for the elderly. More at The Open Door on Facebook.
