All gifts and donations in support of the upkeep of the church and its music are gratefully received. Donations of any size can be made easily and safely online via the myDonate button to the right, on this page (valid till end June 2019).
Prebendary Nigel Guthrie is our Vicar here and also at St David’s Church Exeter. Fr. Christopher Durrant and the Revd. Alison Whiting are our Curates.
The Nest Box Camera on the Peregrine Falcons nesting in the spire will resume online during March. Eggs are usually laid towards the end of March, often coinciding with the Spring Equinox. Nick Dixon’s 24-page illustrated booklet on the History of the Peregrine Falcons at St Michael’s, is available from his website.
We honour the lasting memory of the Revd. Dr John Hughes, former Curate of this parish and Dean of Jesus College, Cambridge, whose enthusiasm, encouragement, vision and love inspired ours and many other communities through the development of theology, heritage, music and the arts. The John Hughes Arts Festival now in its third year takes place this month at Jesus College in Cambridge. Likewise, we honour the lasting memory of the late Canon John Thurmer, former Priest of this church and Canon of Exeter Cathedral, and whose legacy is immeasurable. His input to this website includes the Glossary, which explores the rich vocabulary of the Church, and also the Constuitudinary. May they rest in peace and rise in glory.
