“Come to me, all you who are weary and are carrying heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light” - Matthew 11: 28-30

🌿 Join us on Thursday 11 June at 7pm for our monthly Said Mass, followed by an extended time of prayer and contemplation before the Blessed Sacrament.

Step away from the noise of the world and rest in the gentle presence of Christ. Whether you come seeking peace, strength, or quiet communion, He is waiting for you 🕊️

Tonight at Faith and a Pint, we tackled the big themes of courage, obedience, and compassion. We explored different types of courage, from following Jesus’s ultimate example of love, to reflecting on Joshua’s call to "fear not" because the Lord was with him.

Leaving the pub, this stunning rainbow over the church perfectly captured the night 🌈 A beautiful visual reminder of God's enduring promises and constant presence, giving us the exact courage we discussed.

A MASSIVE thank you to everyone who came along to our fundraiser today in aid of Guide Dogs UK - whether you baked cake, ate cake, or tried your luck at the Tombola, it was all for a great cause 🦮

Big big thanks goes to Leigh who shared with us a little history about the charity, guide dogs, and his own experiences. We all learnt a lot and have come away with full bellies and new facts! 🧁🧐

Not long to go until we meet for our monthly Faith and a Pint 🍻

This time around we’ll be thinking about “courage”; finding inner strength, resilience, and peace during difficulties and challenges in life.

Less than a week to go until our bake sale in aid of Guide Dogs UK takes place after our Parish Mass 🐾

We’ve heard along the grapevine that you’ll be spoiled for choice - from cookies to cheesecake and brownies to beautiful bakes!

We’re also pleased to welcome Leigh, who’ll be sharing with us a brief history about guide dogs (and there may even be a four-legged friend or two in attendance 🦮❤️)

Please note that there is no Morning Prayer at church tomorrow.

It’s set to be an incredibly hot Bank Holiday, so please take it easy, stay safe, and keep hydrated! Whether you're planning a trip to the beach, a BBQ, or just enjoying the garden and time with family, take a minute to thank God for the extra time off and lift a prayer for those working in this heat 🙏

What a powerful way to celebrate Pentecost, the birthday of the church 🔥 Just as the Holy Spirit filled believers long ago, we saw the Spirit moving today in the waters of baptism as we welcomed Craig and Skylar to the family! ✨

Shri Sriram is a musical force; watching him bridge worlds - from the deep, resonant roots of Indian classical to the unpredictable depths of jazz - was nothing short of magic. It was a joy to have him perform at the Watford Jazz Junction edition of Conversations in Jazz ✨
