St Michael's during April 2021:

  • The church building is currently closed but we remain active:   the Vicar will be in the church building most days to look after things as well as to live stream or video services.   
  • Wednesdays at 11am: Short Said Eucharist will recommence in church from 21st April. Mandatory use of face coverings, social distancing, hand sanitiser and registration systems are all in place. No social contact between households is allowed. Our legal limit is 23 people. Bring the order of service to use on a mobile device if you can but you can join in without one.
  • PCC Resolution - our Parish Church Council will be reviewing  our own three point Plan for moving out of lockdown next week. Our Sunday Eucharist remains live streamed online via Zoom at 10am each week. 
  • Holy Communion: the Eucharist is celebrated every Sunday online but of course Holy Communion cannot be shared. If anyone would like Communion at Home please use the Contact tab above. The Vicar is able to provide Communion for you in a Covid secure way on request.
