Youth @ Kelty Kirk

Kelty Kirk is very much a youth-friendly zone. Our church is all carpeted, we have flexible seating, and a practical set of halls that can accommodate most activities. We have an excellent working relationship with Beath High School and Kelty Primary School where our minister is the chaplain for both educational establishments.

We are very aware that people tend to think that being part of the church is not the trendiest or coolest image to have. However, if you know somewhere else where you can watch videos or play computer games on a 30ft video screen, and get involved in allsorts of things that can change life the universe and everything for YOU and others, then please let us know! Until then, we'd like to simply let YOU know that you could be part of all this in the Church of Scotland, right at the heart of little old Kelty in West Fife. Join us anytime you like!
