We want you to feel welcome and comfortable during your first visit, so we've attempted to answer a few questions. Here's what you can expect on Sundays. 

Service Times

• Sundays at 10:00am | Family Service
• Every 2nd and 4th Sunday at 11:45am | Traditional Holy Communion Service
• Wednesdays at 10:30am | Traditional Holy Communion Service

Location and directions

You will find us at 205 Southcote Lane in Southcote, Reading RG30 3AX- just opposite Coronation Square and off the Bath Road / Prospect Park.

When should I arrive?

Our Sunday Service begins at 10:00 am, but if you arrive a few minutes earlier you can chat to a member of the welcome team.

What's the culture like at St Matts?

Casual and relaxed. Come just as you are.

What about my children?

We believe that kids should have a blast at church every single week - and at Kidz Church, we make this a priority.

Our other priority is your children’s safety. We have a check-in system. All our volunteers  have been DBS checked and one of the adults will always have first aid training. Kidz Church is offered for kids ages 5-11.

For younger ones, we also have a Crèche. You can leave your toddler safely there or stay and listen to the service through the speakers.

Teenagers can join The Gap on Sunday, where they will enjoy a hot chocolate and toast before starting the session.
