Welcome to our website - we're glad you've visited!

Perth North Church is a congregation of the Church of Scotland. Our Mission Statement “To know Christ and make Him known” drives the objectives and the activities of our congregation. We would be delighted to welcome you to join us at any of our four weekly services of worship.
We are a strong, enthusiastic and friendly congregation, committed to the development of a Christian witness in our parish, Perth City and beyond. We enjoy a variety of worship formats and we use multimedia as appropriate. We encourage and promote engagement with young people and are always looking at ways of reaching and nurturing people of all ages.
Oh, and by the way, we're not perfect - so you don't have to be to join us.

Join us for worship

Sunday 9:30am
An informal, unpredictable, all-age worship service with greater use of contemporary praise songs led by our band. Monthly breakfast service in Church Hall.
Sunday 11:00am
A more traditional service, with organ/keyboard, choir and Adventurers' children's  group.  Creche on request.

Sunday 6.30pm
Time for more indepth exploration of Scripture, more reflective in nature and sometimes includes interviews with invited guests.









Thursday@1
A 15-minute lunchtime service at 1pm.
This can be preceded by an optional light lunch for £2

CDs

CDAudio CDs of the 11.00am service are available free to members of our congregation who cannot attend because of frailty or other commitments.  If you have to miss a service because of work or holiday contact the office and ask for one to be set aside for you.

Looking For ...


We have started 2012 off with a set of questions to people who pass by our church.  Why?  Because we believe that the Bible has many of the answers people are looking for and that God through His Son Jesus Christ brings meaning to life.   Over the coming days we will bring further thoughts on the issues raised in the above banners so visit us again soon.   

From the Minister


A word of welcome from Rev. Hugh O'Brien:
"We’re glad you’ve visited our site and would be delighted to welcome you to our church services, housegroups and other activities.  Our prayer is that you would experience a deepening of your relationship with Jesus Christ as we worship and study God's word together.   Check-out our services under the 'Worshp' tab, each of them different in nature but all focussing on Jesus Christ our Saviour and Lord - whose we are and whom we serve."

Going into hospital?
If you're part of our church family, are going into hospital and would like a visit from the Church; then please inform the Church office (01738 622298) or call the manse in confidence in advance of your admission. 

It's important that you, or someone else, make contact with the Church, as there is now no hospital system of alerting the Minister to your admission.
