St Matthew's Anglican Church, Cheltenham

Welcome to our Church!

As a part of the 'Body of Christ' we try to live out the message of the Gospel but in a variety of ways.
Each of us has our own ministry and such ministries may be to one or two individuals or to a much wider group of people but these expressions are strengthened and underpinned by our corporate worship.

The parish explores a theology that reflects the anglo-catholic tradition and whilst its worship is generally conservative there is a liberal element in the thinking of
its people as they attempt to reach out to the wider community, learning to embrace differences
- to fellowship together
- to walk together
- to listen

Everyone wear RED!
The liturgical colour for Pentecost Sunday, May 27th, is red.
This signifies the fire of the Holy Spirit descending on us as it did on the apostles that day.
So remember to wear red (or flame colours) for Pentecost as we celebrate this glorious feast day.
