Calling a Bishop

Stretching south from the river Forth to the Scottish Borders and east from Falkirk to the Scottish coast, the Diocese of Edinburgh is rich in the diversity of its church communities and their worship styles, all seeking to share the Good News of Jesus Christ.

As a Diocese, we are prayerfully looking for a Bishop to lead and support us as we discern God’s call to us in this place and at this time of change and challenge.

Prospective candidates are sought for the office of the Bishop of Edinburgh.

Information about the process, a nomination form, and a description of the Diocese may be downloaded from our Bishop Search page.

Closing date: 31 October 2025 at 12 noon.
