Welcome
Welcome to St. Alban’s. An Anglican Church in the Diocese of Southwark under the pastoral and sacramental care of the Bishop of Fulham.
St. Alban’s’ friendly congregation is welcoming
of all and you may receive Holy Communion but only if you usually do and have been confirmed.
The Bible readings and set prayers can be found on the back of the ‘Sunday Plus’ leaflet. The Order of Mass is in the booklet and the hymns are usually in the orange hymn book.
There are simple themed activities for young children in the Quiet Corner behind the notice boards. Accompany your child please.
We take seriously the welfare of everyone atSt. Alban’s. If you have any issues regarding the safeguarding of children or vulnerable adults please address them either to the clergy or the safeguarding officers, DayoOlomu & Maria Virtue, who will deal with them in confidence.
If you are new to St. Alban’s please make yourself known to the Vicar afterwards and sign the visitor’s book. Do join us for refreshments in the hall next door at the end of Mass.
