Sundays & Holy Days

Eighteenth Sunday after Trinity

Sunday, 29 September, 2024

Collect for the day

Almighty and everlasting God,
increase in us your gift of faith
that, forsaking what lies behind
and reaching out to that which is before,
we may run the way of your commandments
and win the crown of everlasting joy;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.

Sermon

Fr Mark’s sermon at the 9:30am Eucharist at Steyning will be recorded live and uploaded to the Sermons page after the service.

Should you be unable to get to church, the Church of England continues to provide a videoed, pre-recorded service, available every weekend, and which can be followed here. Services continue to be streamed live from our Cathedral, and can be found here

Sunday Evenings 

We normally have an evening service at 6pm on Sundays. 

  • On the first Sunday of the month this is Reflections, built around a period of quiet contemplation
  • We have Choral Evensong the third Sunday of the month (except in August, when the choir is on holiday, and December, when we have Christmas choral evening services).
  • Otherwise there is usually a quiet evening service in our Cuthman Chapel in traditional language. 

These times and dates may change according to season or special events, please refer to the current notice sheet.

Weekday Services

Our weekly 11:30am WEDNESDAY EUCHARIST takes place in the chancel with appropriate Covid-19  precautions. On the fourth Wednesday of the month this usually includes prayers for healing.
MORNING PRAYER is usually said in the Cuthman Chapel each weekday at 8:30am from Monday to Thursday.

You can follow the daily office of the Church of England online here. [Choose ‘Morning Prayer (Contemporary)’ if you wish to follow along with a typical recording below.]
