when we meet
St. Silas offers a variety of worship services on a Sunday: from the beauty and simplicity of the traditional Anglican liturgy at 9am; to the interactive Together services at 11am on Sunday mornings; to the innovative and exploratory Deeper service which takes place once a month in the evening. We believe that our Anglican heritage is important and make use of traditional liturgies especially in our communion services whilst, at the same time, seeking to constantly discover more about how we can worship as the body of Christ in new ways. Music plays an important part in our services and is led by a variety of teams of gifted musicians.
