Resplendent Worship,
Humble Service

Welcome to St Michael and All Saints, a dynamic Anglo-Catholic church in Edinburgh’s city centre, known for its rich liturgical tradition, exceptional choral music, and awe-inspiring space for prayer and reflection.

ELABORATE rituals shape the way people pray at St Michael and All Saints. Timeless, resplendent expressions, held together in poetry, music, and art, draw people into the mysteries of God.
    Yet this worship is not an escape from the world. Those who pray here bring with them the realities of daily life—their hopes, struggles, and concerns for the world around them. And at the conclusion of every Mass, worshippers are sent forth to live lives of humble service and compassion, seeking Christ in every person they encounter.
