Ladies’ Quiet Evening by Candlelight

St James Alperton
St James Church Centre Stanley Avenue Alperton Wembley, HA0 4JB, United Kingdom

You are warmly invited to Ladies’ Quiet Evening by Candlelight on Friday 19th January 2026 at 7:30 pm
This gentle evening will be a space to pause, pray, and reflect together, inspired by the biblical witness of Anna in the Temple—a woman of faith, patience, and hope, who learned to recognise God’s presence through waiting and prayer.

All ladies are very welcome.
Come as you are, and take time to rest in God’s presence.

St James Alperton

Welcome to the Parish Church of St James, Alperton.

We are an intercultural Christian community,
united by God's love,
rooted in Christ,
open to the renewing work of the Holy Spirit,
and firmly anchored in prayer and Scripture.

For us, being intercultural is not simply about diversity or coexistence. It is about reflecting the fullness of God’s kingdom — “a house of prayer for all nations” (Isaiah 56:7), and living out the one new humanity created in Christ Jesus, out of many, through his reconciling love (Ephesians 2:15). 

We believe that the rich diversity of cultures, languages, and generations among us is not a problem to be managed, but a divine gift to be received, celebrated, and allowed to unfold. 

This shared life is expressed in our worship as we pray, read Scripture, and sing together in many languages. Alongside English, we regularly worship in Tamil, Hindi, Arabic, and other languages spoken by members of our church family.

In this way, St James seeks to be a living sign of God’s reconciling grace — a place where people do not simply gather side by side, but grow together in belonging, faith, and hope.

Come and join us at:-

           Sunday 10.30am             Holy Communion Service.
           Wednesday 10.30am     Holy Communion Service (English Language). 

We look forward to getting to know you.

PS. Arrive at 10am on Sunday for pastries/fruit and tea/coffee or anytime before 12:15 if you are running late!
