St Mary's Scottish Episcopal Church, Broughty Ferry
Church groups
Knit and Natter
We meet every Wednesday 11.15 am until 2 pm (sometimes later) in the church. We have made hats to send to the Mission for Seafarers and Christmas angels and Easter chicks to hand out in "The Ferry". Join in our projects or just bring your own knitting or crocheting. All welcome to come along even just for a natter and a cuppa!
Music
At certain times of the year e.g. Easter and Christmas, singers get together with our organist Ian to practise and perform special pieces of music.
Speak to Ian to find out more.
Mothers' Union
The Mothers' Union is an International Christian Organization with over 3.5 million members in 76 countries across the world. At St Mary's we are a very small branch and as it is the only one in Brechin Diocese it joins with the neighbouring diocese of St Andrews, Dunkeld and Dunblane for all major activities such as the AGM, Mary Sumner Day and work with women prisoners.
​
Locally we support the 16 Days of Activism against gender-based violence and include our whole church in this. We have links with Dundee Women's Aid.
​​
The church Knit and Natter group has supported the Mothers' Union by making hats for farmers who are having a difficult time and knitted goods go out to India for work with teenagers.
​
The Diocesan fundraising activity of stewarding at a blueberry picking farm has also been supported in 2025, the money raised going to AFIA (Away From It All) trips or holidays.
​
Our branch is also linked with Bundaberg in Queensland, Australia.
​
Please speak to Christine Berry if you are interested in joining our MU branch.

Book Group
We meet every 6-8 weeks in Willows Coffee Shop in Broughty Ferry to discuss the book we have chosen to read. Book groups are a great way of broadening your horizons and reading something you might not usually read. All welcome to join us. Find out about the next book and meeting in the latest newsletter.
