Carrubbers Christian Centre is a church on the Royal Mile in Edinburgh, Scotland.
During their visit, they managed to raise £10,000 to pay for a permanent home for the mission and later that year, the foundation stone was laid.
Run by a board of directors representing other churches of various denominations throughout the city, Carrubbers has concentrated through most of its history on evangelism, Bible teaching and alleviating suffering amongst the poor, the ill and those prone to addiction.
The focus moved to building a small congregation as an independent, non-denominational church.
In addition, many find faith in Jesus through contact with its members or through its courses for enquirers or outreach enterprises.
