Open Church with Labyrinth

Every Monday and Wednesday at for 4 hours
St Paul's, Roundshaw
Mollison Drive, Roundshaw Estate Wallington, SM6 9HG, United Kingdom
Our church doors will be open as much as possible during Lent for anyone to drop in for a cuppa, take time to sit in the quiet or light a candle, or to walk the labyrinth. Labyrinth walking is an ancient practice of journeying used by peoples of all faiths and none, for spiritual centering, contemplation and prayer. Whatever your beliefs, come spend some time following a clearly marked path on a symbolic form of pilgrimage. There will be some guiding material for those who would find this helpful, and places of quiet around the church to sit with your thoughts, play, write, draw or find a listening ear. Come for 5 minutes or stay as long as the doors are open. All are welcome here.

Whilst these are our current set times the doors will be open at other times so please simply come in.

St Paul's, Roundshaw

Welcome to our website for St Paul's Roundshaw. We celebrate Mass every Sunday morning at 8.30 and every Wednesday morning at 10.30. Most days of the week the church is open from 9.30 for a time of prayer/meditation, either led by our Vicar or  members of our congregation.  You are always welcome to join with us or simply make yourself at home for a time of quiet or a cuppa.

St Paul's Roundshaw is one of two churches within our parish, the other being St Michael's in South Beddington.    Both churches are in the modern Catholic tradition. St Michael's stands clearly and unashamedly in the Anglo-Catholic tradition, whilst St Paul's offers a somewhat less formal style of worship. Both churches have friendly congregations drawn mainly from the local communities and a number of our parishioners attend services and social activities across the two. We are active in our local community, with strong links to 3rd Beddington Scout Group and growing links with our primary and secondary schools. 

Here at St Paul's we have lots happening through the week and we look forward to seeing you. On Monday's we have a lunch club for older members of our local community, Wednesdays we are open all morning with services and coffee, Thursdays we host a range of drop ins in partnership with others (currently Gary Mason drumming and once a month health drop ins), Fridays a drop in run by, with and for our whole community with advice, info, support, games, crafts, space to sit quietly and always lovely refreshements and company!

Our doors are open at both churches across the week (although not currently all day or every day) and you are welcome, whether you wish to sit quietly or join with others for prayer, worship and/or activities and chat.
