WORSHIP SERVICES
SUNDAY

8 AM

10 AM

7.30 PM

On a Sunday morning we have a service at 8am in the chancel (by the high altar).

This is a simple eucharist from A New Zealand Prayer Book He Karakia Mihinare o Aotearoa.

It lasts about 40 minutes.

 

Then at 10am we have our principal service of the week, a sung eucharist in the Nave.

The St Matthew’s Voices lead the music with often an introit, anthem, and pieces during communion.

The organ is used for the hymns.

The liturgy is Anglican in structure and material is taken from many sources:

the Prayer Book, the resources of churches around the world, and our own locally written material.

Clergy and laypeople preach and sermons are available online in the week following the service.

Following the 10am service we gather for morning tea and fellowship.
