Saint Mary's and Saint James's are linked congregations of the Scottish Episcopal Diocese of Aberdeen and Orkney and part of the worldwide Anglican Communion, which includes the Churches of England, Ireland, Wales, the Episcopal Church of the USA and the Anglican Church of Canada, as well as churches in most countries of the world.

If you can, come and see us!

Father, pour out your Spirit upon us and grant us a new vision of your glory,
a new experience of your power,
a new faithfulness to your word and a new consecration to your service,
that your love may grow among us and your kingdom come:
through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.

On Sunday 7th September, we celebrate the 138th anniversary of the consecration of the Church of Saint Mary-on-the-Rock. To begin the celebration there is a Flower Festival in the Church on Saturday 6th from 10:00 a.m. until 4:00 p.m.  You are invited to visit us and see the marvellous display of flowers that are being created by members of the congregation.  This year the theme is 'All the World's a Stage'.   There is no charge for admission to the church, but any donation which you may choose to give will be used in the work of Macmillan Cancer Support.

Refreshments will also be available in the church hall during the day and again all money raised will go to Macmillan Cancer Support.

The Festival continues on Sunday with a celebratory Eucharist at 11:00 a.m. when the guest preacher will be the Reverend Fred Coutts, who is Head of Spiritual Care for the Grampian NHS Trust.
