Open Doors at St Gerardine’s High Church

September 6, 2015 by 2

On Saturday 12 September 2015, from 10am to 4pm, our sister Church of Scotland in Lossiemouth, St Gerardine’s High Church is having an Open Doors day.

This is a great opportunity to experience what so many previous generations have felt – the spiritual guidance, comfort and strength in what is a unique building.

Various physical features of the building stand out, including:

  • the Norman style pillars supporting the wooden roof, which represents Lossiemouth’s boat building and fishing past;
  • the Renaissance pillar from the medieval Kinneddar Church;
  • the 17th century memorial stone of the Gordon family;
  • the stained glass windows commemorating the fallen of the First World War; and
  • the carved wooden figure of a shepherd, donated by the people of Hersbruck in Bavaria, Germany.  (Hersbruck is twinned with Lossiemouth).

You are invited to have a cup of tea as part of your visit and visitors are always very welcome at St Gerardine’s weekly Sunday Service at 11am.

If you have never been inside the Church before, it is a great opportunity to see its many interesting features.  Parking close by is straightforward either on Prospect Terrace or St Gerardine’s Road.  Why not combine it with a visit to either the East Beach or the West Beach?

April 5, 2026 By 2

“Christ is Risen, He is Risen Indeed!”

Happy Easter!

One modern-day thinker respected by the Church of Scotland in its approach to theology is Dr Timothy Keller (1950 – 2023) – see, for example, the pamphlet “What can I say?” (link to PDF download).

In a world ravaged by war, poverty and fear, on this Easter Sunday, arguably the happiest day of the year in the Christian calendar, here are some words you might like to hear – from Tim Keller.

In an interview recorded with Matt Smethurst in 2021, Tim Keller was asked if he could give any words of reassurance to Christians who are nervous about the future.

At that time, Tim was terminally ill with pancreatic cancer.

The reference to “Kathy” is to his wife.

Tim said:
