Welcome to St Mary the Virgin
and St Matthew’s Parish

Welcome

We warmly welcome you to the Parish of St Mary the Virgin, Stanwell and St Matthew, Ashford.

Rooted in the Catholic tradition of the Church of England, we seek to embody Christ’s love and grace in all we do.

Here you will find a prayerful, inclusive family of faith — where all are invited to share in the joy of the Gospel.

We are under the episcopal care of Bishop Jonathan Baker, Bishop of Fulham.

Mission

At St Mary’s and St Matthew’s, as members of the one Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, we are committed to living out the mission of Christ:

“Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations.”
Matthew 28:19

Our purpose is to share the love of Christ and walk together with all who seek Him, in faith and hope.
