Worship at St Agnes Longsight
Contemporary & Traditional
    Customary & Alternative...

St Agnes' has a rich worshipping tradition which offers a variety of
services and styles to allow people to discover new ways of worshipping
God.

Worship is the primary purpose of the Church. In our worship we join
with the whole Church of Christ, living and departed, with angels,
archangels and with the whole company of heaven.


Centred on the Eucharist ...

Worship is central to the life of every Christian and especially to the life
of our parish. At St Agnes' worship is in the modern catholic style and is
centred on the Sunday Parish Eucharist celebrated at 10.30am. Find
out more about the Parish Eucharist
here.


Diversity and tradition ...

The Church of England services in Common Worship form the basis of
our worship (
Eucharist Order One) and we draw from other traditions at
times during the year to celebrate the diversity of our local community
and reflect the rich liturgical heritage of the Church. The Book of
Common Prayer is used at said celebrations of the Eucharist on
Christmas Day and Easter Sunday, together with Sunday Evensong
occasionally during the year and Holy Communion on the feast days of
the Apostles and Evangelists.


Other services ...

As well as the Sunday and Wednesday Eucharists other services are
held regularly. Evening Prayer is said every day (except Friday) at 5.00
pm. Benediction, Healing Services and informal services are held
occasionally - full details can be found on our
Diary page.

About Us
Prayer

Most liturgy at St Agnes is
based on Common worship
services in contemporary
language but we use BCP

  • Sunday Evening Prayer

    certain red-letter days
    and at Christmas &
    Easter

The
diary page states which
services are BCP.
