December 2021 Services

For general information about the services at St Michaels please see the Services Overview page.

The 9.30am Parish Communion service is held in the church building, and is open to all to attend (subject to seating restrictions), and will also be live-streamed as shown below.

The 8.00am Communion Service is held in the church building.

​The 11.15am Family Service is held in the church building. We are not currently live-streaming this service.
.
The seating arrangements at church services are:
The south side of the church (right of the central aisle) will be for those who require social distancing,  everyone to wear masks and no-one to sing. 
The north side of the church (left of the central aisle) will be for those who wish to sing and are happy being around people who may or may not be wearing masks. In this area, wearing of masks is optional, and singing (where applicable) is encouraged.

Update 9 December 2021 - All are now required to wear a mask in church unless exempt
​

Live streaming of services is now both on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/StMichaelsSandhurst) and also on YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UC4vYB32hY4ana2nl8NeM-lA.
The Facebook post can be viewed immediately after the event; the Youtube video takes a few hours to be available after the service has finished.
