Bon Accord Free Church


Bon Accord Free Church is a congregation of the Free Church of Scotland in Aberdeen.

History

A Bon Accord Free Church was created in the Disruption of 1843.
The current building was designed in 1894 by the architect Robert Gordon Wilson on the site of the Union Baptist Chapel and opened in 1896. Following the Union of 1900 it became the Bon Accord United Free Church. From 1962 to 1974 it was Bon Accord St Paul's Church before reverting to Bon Accord Free Church in 1974.
Over the years, Bon Accord has had a number of ministers, each making their own impact upon the Church. Throughout the years, the Church has maintained its commitment to the gospel and to a strong preaching ministry.

Buildings

The congregation has been in the Bon Accord building ever since it was bought in 1977. Before this, they used a building on Dee Street until the building became too small for them during the 1970s. The present building on Rosemount Viaduct seats around 700 people.

Services

As with all Free Churches there are two services on a Sunday, each service generally consists of 4 psalms, a Bible reading and a sermon as well as prayer.
