The Low Mass

Low Mass is a simple and prayerful celebration of the Holy Eucharist. Without music or ceremony, it offers a still moment of encounter with God in Word and Sacrament.

In this quieter form of the Mass, we are invited into a deeper silence — a space to listen, to reflect, and to be renewed by Christ’s presence. Here, without distraction, we can attend closely to the mystery unfolding before us: the offering of Christ on the Cross made present for us again at the altar.

The celebrant leads us through the prayers and readings, proclaiming the Word of God and consecrating the bread and wine so that they become the Body and Blood of Christ. Though the form is simple, the grace we receive is no less abundant.

At Low Mass, the focus is not on outward splendour, but on the quiet intimacy of faith — a personal meeting with the Lord who feeds and strengthens us for the life of discipleship.

St Mary the Virgin Stanwell

A VERY WARM WELCOME to the Parish Churches of St. Mary the Virgin Stanwell and St. Matthew Ashford, whether you come as a visitor to look at our lovely Churches, to pray where generations of people have prayed before you, or if you come as one looking for a church to make your spiritual home.

Our parishioners represent a wide variety of age groups, backgrounds, experiences and occupations. Given all our parish has to offer, we realise that a newcomer can still feel isolated amid new, unknown faces, ministries and opportunities. We hope to minimize such isolation and invite you to learn more about our parishes so that you and your family may experience our rich opportunities for worship, community and ministry.

St Mary’s and St Matthew’s are truly places where all are counted as part of our faith family. We seek to be an inclusive and welcoming Christian community, imposing no conditions on those who come through our doors other than a willingness to be open to the love of God revealed in Jesus Christ. Again, welcome; I look forward to meeting you.

Yours in Christ,

Fr Stuart King SSC

Parish Priest
