Worship at Dunfermline Abbey follows a traditional Church of Scotland pattern with the Word of God taking central place.

Worship

Everyone is warmly welcome at all of our regular services.

Morning Worship at 10:30am every Sunday

Join us for Morning Worship every Sunday at 10.30am. Worship in church is led by the Revd MaryAnn Rennie. Matthew Beetschen, the Master of Music, leads the Abbey Choristers as well as playing the organ. He is supported by the Assistant Organist, William Campbell.  During the service there is a wriggly table in the south aisle, with activities for those who like to “do” while they listen

Communion

Communion is on the second Sundays in March, June, September and December. In March and December the services are at 11.00am and 3.00pm and in June and September they are at 11.00am and 6.00pm

Midweek Prayers

Midweek prayers are held each Wednesday at 12.15pm in the Memorial Chapel.

Special Services

Dunfermline Abbey’s recent special services range from annual historical and religious celebrations like the St Margaret Pilgrimage and Easter, to milestone civic consultations, ecumenical ceremonies, and high-profile royal events. The Abbey continues to balance its roles as an active parish church, a national monument, and a central community gathering place

Interactive, Intergenerational Worship

Throughout the year we hold less formal interactive and intergenerational services that invite those at worship to participate in the service in ways that feel comfortable for them. Often these happen at festival times, including Palm Sunday, Harvest, Celebrating the Summer, and more.

We now live stream all our services so if you can’t make it to the church, you can join us (virtually) on our You Tube channel each week.
