Looking forward to seeing you tonight! 7:30pm in the paddock. Bring a chair, rug, or grab a chair from church and enjoy a relaxed service in the warmth of a summer evening.Thursday 10th July, 7:30pm – 70th Anniversary Outdoor Communion Service

We’d love you to join us as we celebrate 70 years of worship and community here at St Michael’s.

This will be an informal Communion service out in the Paddock — think summer evening, favourite hymns, and time together giving thanks for all that has been and all that’s still to come.

✨ Bring:

– A comfy deck chair or a picnic blanket
(Or grab less comfortable chair from church—we have plenty!)
– Your favourite hymn requests
– If it rains (which it definitely won’t!), we’ll head indoors instead.

Everyone is welcome—whether you’ve been part of the story for years or you’re just curious to see what we’re about.

Come and help us mark this special milestone.

Whilst we were being ‘living stones’ in church this morning, our churchwarden was being a living stone in another part of Hatfield – raising money for Cancer Research in The Race for Life.
Well done Alexander!
We look forward to seeing the outfit again at the church fete on Saturday. 😉🤭

Our 70th Anniversary celebrations have begun! 🎉

Thank you to everyone who decorated the church windows with different areas of our church life.

It was great to spend time together at this morning’s All Together service, thinking about how each of us can be a ‘living stone’ in God’s house.

Our St Michael’s wall of living stones showed so many gifts, hopes, and ideas for the future of the church – all built on God and the 70 years of faithful service that has gone before.

Why not come and be part of building the next phase of the life of St Michael’s? We’d love to meet you!

Join us this Sunday for a special all-age service at St Michael’s as we explore what it means to be living stones — people who belong, build, and grow together in faith.

We’ll be celebrating all the ways our church has been built over the last 70 years and thinking about how each of us can bring our gifts to God’s work in St Michael’s in the months ahead.

There will be something for everyone—young and old, new faces and long-time friends. Whether you’ve been part of St Michael’s for years or you’re just curious, you’re warmly invited.

Come and find your place in God’s house!
