This week, our Sunday morning service will follow the familiar structure of Holy Communion but with an overarching theme of healing.

After receiving the bread and wine (or a blessing), there will be an opportunity to receive a short prayer for healing, and anointing with oil.

There will be no obligation to receive these elements of ministry – the service has put together in a way that will enable everyone to feel comfortable and included in Sunday morning worship.

We'd love to see you.

What a celebration of the Holy Spirit!

This morning, we celebrated the Church’s birthday with a brilliant retelling of the Pentecost story by Katherine, Kim and our fantastic Wind and Fire children!

There was joyful music from our wonderful joint choir, cake, balloons — and a special birthday present: a jigsaw that reminds us that God’s Spirit brings all kinds of different people together to create His Church. It was also Sebastian’s first time as Deacon – he was brilliant, as were all the readers!

We love that St Michael’s is made up of people of different ages, backgrounds, cultures and gifts. Some have been coming for just a couple of weeks, others for years.

Every single person is a valued part of God’s picture — and it was so good to see the many different ‘pieces’ of the St Michael’s picture fitting together this morning AND to be reminded that there is always room for many more!

We look forward to welcoming you! Our next All-Together service is on 6th July, if you’d like to give it a go.

Lots going on at our PCC meeting last night!

We had a fantastic conversation about how we can keep growing our work with young people at St Michael’s.

We set up a new Property & Grounds team and appointed a new chair.

Our safeguarding policies were reviewed, and a plan was made to spruce up our outdoor space. 🌿✨

Fancy getting involved in any of this work? Just drop us a message — we’d love to hear from you!

Most Sundays at St Michael’s we love celebrating birthdays — whether someone’s been part of our church family for just a week or for many years.

This week we shared this fabulous music-themed cake for Roger’s special birthday — a lovely reflection of all he’s brought to the musical life of St Michael’s. 🎶🎂
