DESCRIPTION:The Family Mass\n\nThe Family Mass is a joyful and welcoming c
 elebration of the Holy Eucharist\, bringing together people of all ages to
  worship as one family in Christ. It is a sung Mass\, rich in participatio
 n and prayer\, though without hymns — allowing the beauty of the liturgy
  itself to lead us in praise.\n\nHere\, children and adults alike share in
  the rhythm of the Church’s worship\, hearing God’s Word\, offering pr
 ayers\, and coming together around the altar to receive the Body and Blood
  of Christ. The familiar responses and simple chants help everyone to take
  part\, creating a sense of unity and belonging.\n\nThe celebrant leads us
  in prayer and thanksgiving\, proclaiming the Scriptures and consecrating 
 the bread and wine so that we may be fed with Christ’s life. Every eleme
 nt of the Family Mass — the readings\, the music\, the stillness — dra
 ws us closer to God and to one another.\n\nThis Mass invites families to g
 row in faith together\, learning the beauty of worship and discovering the
  quiet joy of meeting Christ in the Eucharist.

DESCRIPTION:Wednesday Coffee Morning\n\nOur Wednesday Coffee Morning\, in 
 Stanwell\, is a simple but cherished part of parish life — a time for fr
 iendship\, laughter\, and conversation shared over a cup of coffee (or tea
 !) and a slice of something delicious.\n\nEveryone is welcome — regular 
 churchgoers and those who simply enjoy good company. It’s a chance to pa
 use in the middle of the week\, to meet new faces\, catch up with old frie
 nds\, and share the warmth of community.\n\nWhat makes our coffee mornings
  special is the way they bring people together: young and old\, church and
  not\, all gathered around the same table. In these small moments of kindn
 ess and connection\, we see something of God’s joy and hospitality at wo
 rk among us.\n\nCome as you are\, stay as long as you like — there’s a
 lways a seat and a smile waiting for you.

 eaceful and contemplative close to the day\, drawing us into the beauty of
  evening prayer and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.\n\nEvensong is the
  Church’s traditional service of evening worship\, sung in the rich lang
 uage of Scripture and prayer. Rooted in the Psalms and the ancient canticl
 es of Magnificat and Nunc Dimittis\, it includes readings that open the tr
 easures of Scripture and the writings of the saints\, helping us to reflec
 t more deeply on the mystery of faith. The music and words together lift o
 ur hearts in thanksgiving and trust\, reminding us of God’s abiding pres
 ence.\n\nFollowing Evensong\, we enter into Benediction of the Blessed Sac
 rament — a time of stillness and awe before Christ present in the Euchar
 ist. The Blessed Sacrament is placed upon the altar\, and we adore the Lor
 d in silence and song\, receiving his blessing in the sign of the Cross.\n
 \nEvensong and Benediction together unite the beauty of Anglican worship w
 ith the deep devotion of Catholic tradition: word and sacrament\, praise a
 nd presence\, rest and renewal in the love of Christ.

DESCRIPTION:The Family Mass\n\nThe Family Mass is a joyful and welcoming c
 elebration of the Holy Eucharist\, bringing together people of all ages to
  worship as one family in Christ. It is a sung Mass\, rich in participatio
 n and prayer\, though without hymns — allowing the beauty of the liturgy
  itself to lead us in praise.\n\nHere\, children and adults alike share in
  the rhythm of the Church’s worship\, hearing God’s Word\, offering pr
 ayers\, and coming together around the altar to receive the Body and Blood
  of Christ. The familiar responses and simple chants help everyone to take
  part\, creating a sense of unity and belonging.\n\nThe celebrant leads us
  in prayer and thanksgiving\, proclaiming the Scriptures and consecrating 
 the bread and wine so that we may be fed with Christ’s life. Every eleme
 nt of the Family Mass — the readings\, the music\, the stillness — dra
 ws us closer to God and to one another.\n\nThis Mass invites families to g
 row in faith together\, learning the beauty of worship and discovering the
  quiet joy of meeting Christ in the Eucharist.

  Church’s traditional service of evening worship\, sung in the rich lang

 \nEvensong and Benediction together unite the beauty of Anglican worship w

 Stanwell\, is a simple but cherished part of parish life — a time for fr
 iendship\, laughter\, and conversation shared over a cup of coffee (or tea
 !) and a slice of something delicious.\n\nEveryone is welcome — regular 
 churchgoers and those who simply enjoy good company. It’s a chance to pa
 use in the middle of the week\, to meet new faces\, catch up with old frie
 nds\, and share the warmth of community.\n\nWhat makes our coffee mornings
  special is the way they bring people together: young and old\, church and
  not\, all gathered around the same table. In these small moments of kindn
 ess and connection\, we see something of God’s joy and hospitality at wo
 rk among us.\n\nCome as you are\, stay as long as you like — there’s a
 lways a seat and a smile waiting for you.

DESCRIPTION:Wednesday Coffee Morning\n\nOur Wednesday Coffee Morning\, in 
 Stanwell\, is a simple but cherished part of parish life — a time for fr
 iendship\, laughter\, and conversation shared over a cup of coffee (or tea
 !) and a slice of something delicious.\n\nEveryone is welcome — regular 
 churchgoers and those who simply enjoy good company. It’s a chance to pa
 use in the middle of the week\, to meet new faces\, catch up with old frie
 nds\, and share the warmth of community.\n\nWhat makes our coffee mornings
  special is the way they bring people together: young and old\, church and
  not\, all gathered around the same table. In these small moments of kindn
 ess and connection\, we see something of God’s joy and hospitality at wo
 rk among us.\n\nCome as you are\, stay as long as you like — there’s a
 lways a seat and a smile waiting for you.

  evening prayer and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.\n\nEvensong is the
  Church’s traditional service of evening worship\, sung in the rich lang

 \nEvensong and Benediction together unite the beauty of Anglican worship w

 !) and a slice of something delicious.\n\nEveryone is welcome — regular 
 churchgoers and those who simply enjoy good company. It’s a chance to pa
 use in the middle of the week\, to meet new faces\, catch up with old frie

  special is the way they bring people together: young and old\, church and
  not\, all gathered around the same table. In these small moments of kindn

DESCRIPTION:The Low Mass\n\nLow Mass is a simple and prayerful celebration
  of the Holy Eucharist. Without music or ceremony\, it offers a still mome
 nt of encounter with God in Word and Sacrament.\n\nIn this quieter form of
  the Mass\, we are invited into a deeper silence — a space to listen\, t
 o reflect\, and to be renewed by Christ’s presence. Here\, without distr
 action\, we can attend closely to the mystery unfolding before us: the off
 ering of Christ on the Cross made present for us again at the altar.\n\nTh
 e celebrant leads us through the prayers and readings\, proclaiming the Wo
 rd 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.\n\nAt Low Mass\, the focus is not on outward splendour\,
  but on the quiet intimacy of faith — a personal meeting with the Lord w
 ho feeds and strengthens us for the life of discipleship.

  evening prayer and adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.\n\nEvensong is the
  Church’s traditional service of evening worship\, sung in the rich lang

 rament — a time of stillness and awe before Christ present in the Euchar

 d in silence and song\, receiving his blessing in the sign of the Cross.\n
 \nEvensong and Benediction together unite the beauty of Anglican worship w
 ith the deep devotion of Catholic tradition: word and sacrament\, praise a

 to begin the day in prayer\, listening to God’s Word and offering our pr
 aise and intercession as one parish family.\n\nMorning Prayer follows the 
 Church’s ancient rhythm of daily worship\, combining psalms\, Scripture 
 readings\, and prayers that sanctify the beginning of the day. In this qui
 et and prayerful time\, we give thanks for the gift of life\, seek God’s
  guidance for the hours ahead\, and hold before him the needs of the world
 .\n\nGathering online allows us to remain united in prayer\, wherever we m
 ay be. It is a moment of calm before the busyness of the day — a gentle 
 reminder that all we do and all we are begins and ends in God.
