Diana Hall
Priest-in-Charge
The Rev’d Diana Hall is Priest-in-Charge of St Margaret’s, and also of the Mustard Seed congregation with whom we share a building and with whom we are closely linked. Diana believes that God loves everyone, individually and unconditionally, that this good news is especially important for the poorest and most vulnerable in our society, and that God invites us to grow together in community.
Beyond Easter Road, Diana is a Pastoral Supervisor and a contributor on BBC Radio Scotland. Some things she loves are cake, spaniels, and long, slow jogs.
