Welcome to St Michael and All Angels
~ The community of St Michael’s Mount Dinham extends a very warm welcome to everyone ~
Following Government and Church of England guidance on the Covid-19 pandemic, we are pleased to announce that the Church building will be OPEN for Public Worship with Mass at 11am on Sundays and at 10am on Wednesdays. Church will be open for Private Prayer for 20-30 minutes before these Services, but sadly there can be no Refreshments afterwards. All are welcome – for your safety, please follow the advice from stewards in Church, with Hand sanitising, 2 metre spaced seating, Communion in One kind brought to the Pews.
We welcome Ash Leighton Plom to be our new Curate in training – Ash will be Ordained Deacon on Saturday 12th September. We pray for him and his family.
+ + Our life of prayer and worship continues in faithful hearts and also online + +
We are delighted to share a Virtual Rogation Procession and Corpus Christi Ceremony, recorded by Fr Nigel Guthrie with Dr Richard Parker.
As the evening approaches, enjoy a recording of the ancient evening service of sung Vespers which has been sung at St Michael’s for many years.
Weekly services and reflections will also continue online, by Fr Nigel Guthrie and others from the community of St Michael’s. Prayer Book Matins or Mass will be live streamed to the Friends of St. Michael’s Facebook group by Fr Nigel on Wednesday mornings.
Events pages are still up within this website, now with linked recordings and readings. To receive the newsletter and “Pew Sheet” by email which includes links to music and other notices, please sign up by email to Oliver Nicholson at virtualsaintmichaels@gmail.com
This is our way of staying in touch as we continue to stand with you in this extraordinary time. Up to date advice & news from Exeter Diocese is available from this link.
Our nature and wildlife continues to thrive. St Michael’s famous Peregrine Falcons can be observed via the webcam positioned on their nest within the spire. Our adult female Peregrine laid 3 eggs, but sadly for the first time in 24 years none of them has hatched. Exeter Peregrine Group’s Flickr gallery holds unique and beautiful images of these incredible birds.
We send our very best wishes to you all – may you stay grounded and healthy, and may we all navigate the challenges of this time with grace and love.
