St Matthew's Westminster
Welcome
St Matthew’s is a place at the heart of the city where you can discover worship, friendship and refreshment – in a word, community.
We come from different places and diverse backgrounds. Some of us live in the parish, some travel miles. Some of us worship regularly on Sunday or when we can make it, others form part of our weekday community. Some of us are part of the wider virtual community. For all of us, St Matthew's is a place where we are nourished on our Christian pilgrimage and where we find church. Unconditional welcome and generous hospitality are at the heart of the Christian gospel. We try and live this through our worship, our learning together and our support for each other.
​
The church building is open everyday, and the rhythm of Mass, Morning and Evening Prayer is at the heart of our common life.
