Who we are


City on a Hill is a contemporary church in Edinburgh led by Pastor Peter Anderson. Our journey began in 1998 in a flat in the Haymarket area and we are now home to hundreds of people from different age groups, cultures and backgrounds.

We're an Edinburgh church that seeks to authentically love God and serve the people of our city.

Our vision is to be a relevant and significant church that sees the lost won and the won winning throughout Edinburgh, the Lothians and beyond.
