Parish Mass for the 20th Sunday after Trinity, with the baptism of Olivia-Rose

Occurring
for 1 hour, 15 mins
Venue
St Michael & All Angels
Address
Northcote Road/Palmerston Road WALTHAMSTOW, LONDON., E17 6PQ, United Kingdom

Come and join us either in person or on the livestream as we celebrate the beginning of Olivia-Rose's Christian life at her baptism. We are reminded about the complexities of the religious life in the gospel, Matthew 22: 15-22, when the Pharisees set out to trap Jesus into saying that good, pious Jews should not pay tax to Caesar. Jesus gives the perfect response, in asking to see the coin used for paying tax. He asks them whose portrait is on the coin, and whose inscription? They answer 'Caesar's'. Jesus then astounds them by telling them to pay to Caesar that which belongs to Caesar, and to God that which belongs to God. This reminds us that as Christians we are obliged to pay our taxes and to be good citizens, but must remember that we must give to God our worship and our higher allegiance.

St Michael & All Angels

St Michael and all Angels' is a friendly multicultural church located in the heart of Walthamstow, very close to the vibrant high street.

We are currently in interregnum at St Michael's but are looking forward to our new full-time priest very, very soon.

We would like to thank Fr. Alex Summers and his family for their hard work and for bringing the community together in the 6 years they were with us. 

Please pop in and join us at one of our services. You can also follow us on Facebook and Instagram @stmichaelstow.

God Bless
