At 11am, we will have a service of Matins (BCP Morning Prayer) at St Andrew’s. This will include Psalm 85, readings from the Song of Solomon and 2 Peter, along with the Venite and the Te Deum, a sermon and a hymn. There is no Eucharist at the 11am service this week, but it will be back next week. You may not be familiar with services in “traditional English”. We hope, however, that you will appreciate the beauty of the language we will use. The forms of words found in the BCP and the King James’ Version of the Bible are from a formational period in the history of church and state, and have sustained the spiritual lives of generations of churchgoers – to this day!Please contact the parish office: sasms@btinternet.com for the online code to join this service via Zoom.
As we have not physically met for sometime as a 9:15 congregation we thought before the summer disappears we'd meet outside for one of our Sunday morning services instead of online as we have been doing over the last few months.Join us at St Mark's this Sunday , 26th July at 9:15 am, bringing your own blanket, drinks and children! www.surbitonchurch.org.uk

We have used government and Church of England guidelines to make precautions in advance and ensure safety on the day.To meet these guidelines we have limited our congregation numbers for our services.
