Let us pray: Heavenly Father, whose son, our Lord Jesus, took the form of a servant for the sake of his brothers and sisters: Strengthen us with the prayers and example of your servants: Chad, who became the least of all to minister to all; and Matthew, who was an apostle, witness, evangelist and missionary. Lord, as we seek to follow in the footsteps of your servants: equip us to point people ever heavenwards and to welcome all into your Kingdom. Amen

Safeguarding

We are a Church that wants everyone to be and feel safe in Church. Our PCC has updated our Parish Safeguarding policy statement and agreed our Domestic Abuse policy in line with National Church of England requirements.

The parish of Smethwick: St Matthew with St Chad is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs. The Diocese of Birmingham’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services.
