Redeemer Church Edinburgh

Redeemer Church Edinburgh is a presbyterian church situated in Colinton which is an affluent residential area in the south-west of Edinburgh. The church was planted by Chalmers Church Edinburgh in 2020 (during COVID lockdown!) and, while formally independent, Redeemer enjoys warm relations with a range of gospel churches around Edinburgh and across Scotland.

On Sundays around 100 people gather including a large number of children. The majority live in the immediately surrounding area. Small groups meet in homes during the week and a number of outreach activities are held on weekdays.


In 2023 the opportunity arose to negotiate the purchase of the building and Aquila completed that transaction in March 2024. The building is leased by Aquila to Redeemer at a nominal rent with a commitment from Redeemer to purchase within five years. However Redeemer is currently scheduling to accelerate this re-purchase which will release funds to Aquila for future projects.
