The Team

Jamie & Claire Gibson

Lead Pastors

Jamie and Claire have been part of Freedom City with their families since it began in 1992 and have been part of the leadership team for many years. They began transitioning to become Lead Pastors in September 2020 and are moving forward building on the foundations of the past 30 years. Their heart is to lead a Jesus-centred church with a vision for many to encounter Jesus and for Central Scotland to come to life and prosper. They head up our Leadership Team, who are responsible for the overall vision, direction and culture of the church. They believe that everyone has a part to play and should have the opportunity to be equipped to step into their calling and purpose to make disciples of Jesus and to build His church. This team also lead and care for all the incredible teams of people who serve across each area of church life. They have beautiful twin girls, Isabella and Hannah.

Who we are and why we are here

We passionately believe that the love, grace and presence of God brings Freedom for every person and transforms lives so that we can transform our communities and nations.
We are a City without walls, a safe place where everyone is welcome and where limits are lifted from people and from the future.
We are Church, a family built on unconditional love and grace, a home where people are valued and celebrated. We are a community made up of genuine relationships, common purpose, transparency, trust and honour where people are free to thrive and play their unique part.
