Worship
Lord God, Father, Son & Spirit we love you,
Worship, private or public, includes many different ways of expressing devotion to God. Even the tiniest prayer is worship, yet worshipping together is the fundamental strength of a Christian community.
Morning Prayer is said in the church on most weekday mornings, but on Tuesdays M.P. becomes a joint service with our neighbours at St. Matthews and the Sevenway Methodist Church. (Currently held at St. Matthews.) Sunday services At All Saints, our Sunday services are mainly Eucharistic, i.e. Communion services. We keep an Open Table where members of any Christian denomination are welcome to receive Communion if that is their practice, but there is no compulsion to do so. We admit children from the age of 9 to receive Communion before Confirmation. We like to sing and on Sunday mornings enjoy a variety of styles of hymns, some traditional, others contemporary, accompanied by professionally-recorded CD tracks. We currently use the English Hymnal, New Hymns & Worship Songs and Mission Praise, giving us a wide range from which to select. Weekly notice sheets and scripts of the sermons can be found by following the links below for particular Sunday dates. ******* On the evening of the first Sunday in each month, a Taize-style service is held alternating between All Saints and St Matthews, Stretford. This time of gentle repetitive singing, prayer and readings affords privacy and anonymity for those who wish it.
