UPCOMING SERVICES @ ST. MATTHEW’S CHELTENHAM
At St Matthew’s Anglican Parish, our services provide opportunities to gather in worship, prayer, fellowship and thanksgiving. Throughout the Church year, special feast days and celebrations help us reflect on the life of Christ, remember the saints, pray for the faithful departed, and give thanks for God’s many blessings.
We warmly invite you, your family and friends to join us at our upcoming services as we celebrate our faith, deepen our relationship with God, and share in the life of our parish community.
