St. Michael and All Angels Sandhurst

Welcome to the Website of St Michael and All Angels Church, Sandhurst, Berkshire

Welcome by Rev John Castle, Rector

St Michael’s is a community of people who worship God together, and who want to know God better and serve him better in our daily lives.
People come to our church for all sorts of reasons - at major life events such as marriage, christenings, bereavement, to find God and his purpose for their lives or to get involved in a local Christian community.
Whoever you are, we hope you'll find what you are looking for on this site, so we can help you practically, spiritually or however we can!

Visiting the Church

Everyone is welcome to come into the church, to spend some time in a quiet space away from the busy-ness of life, to take shelter from a sudden shower, or to look around; whatever the reason, you are more than welcome. We try to keep the church open as much as possible for private prayer.
If the church is locked, you can obtain a key from the office (in the centre at the bottom of the path) during office open hours. See the contact page for details.
A history and guide booklet is available in the church and from the office, or you can find extracts here.

"The 1% Challenge"

The following article by youth worker Mike Gower appears on the front page of the January Newsletter.

A new year, and what do you plan in the aftermath of the Christmas spending and eating? Is it the year that you tackle something that you have always been saying you will do - the promise that starts to fade by the end of the month? How about a personal challenge to learn about your faith - whether it is about going to a church group or finding a prayer partner? What about praying for an extra minute each day? As you enter a new year just increase by one per cent all you are doing. It is about increasing your faith. The song lines ‘be bold, be strong for the Lord your God is with you’ come to mind as I write this.

I will leave you with 1 Peter 3:15.

But in your hearts honour Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defence to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do it with gentleness and respect.

Make 2019 your 1% year.
