About Us
A VERY WARM WELCOME to the Church of St. Matthew’s, Ashford, whether you come as a visitor to look at our lovely Church, to pray where generations of people have prayed before you, or if you come as one looking for a church to make your spiritual home. We are glad to have you with us.
St Matthew’s is a parish in the Spelthorne Deanery of the Diocese of London. We are under the episcopal care of Bishop Jonathan Baker SSC, Bishop of Fulham. We stand within the Catholic tradition of the Church of England, seeking to respond faithfully to the Gospel message in our own age.
We seek to be an inclusive and welcoming Christian community, imposing no conditions on those who come through our doors other than a willingness to be open to the love of God revealed in Jesus Christ.
