Sunday Services
The services at St. Matthias’ are varied in both their content and style, some using the liturgy of the Book of Common Prayer ("BCP") or Common Worship ("CW") while others, particularly special services, embrace a wider source of material in both words and music, creating a one-off liturgy, with considerable congregational participation. The Edge is an informal service which aims to be thought provoking and to provide worship in a contemporary style. There is a strong emphasis on biblical preaching and teaching throughout the life of the Church.
