December Services
To keep everybody safe we ask that you wear a mask, use the hand sanitiser and maintain a 2 metre distance when inside the church.
Every Sunday and Wednesday Parish Mass will be held at 10 am. On Sunday 20 December following the 10 am Mass weather permitting we hope to sing carols outside the church door. At that time any child not attending Rolph primary school can collect a Christingle kit from the church porch. We hope to have donkeys! Please come and join us. (We will give every child at Rolph School a Christingle kit in the last week of term)
Christmas:
In place of Midnight Mass we will have a Christmas Eve Mass at 6 pm (Thursday 24 December).
On Friday 25 December there will be a Christmas Day Family Mass at 10 am

Saint Michael's is a friendly parish church with emphasis on the family and on Christian teaching within the framework of Holy Scripture and the Sacraments.
Within the Diocese of Chelmsford and the Church of England, we are a Forward in Faith Parish, having membership of the Society of Ss Wilfrid and Hilda. As such we are in the pastoral care of the Right Reverend Norman Banks, the Bishop of Richborough.
The church is open every day for worship but, sadly, has to be locked when not in use. However, from Easter until October the church is open every Saturday for visitors with stewards present. If you wish to visit at another time, please give us a call and we will let you in.
Everyone is welcome to visit or to join us for worship. You will find the times of our services on the next page and on the Weekly Bulletin page.
We are committed to Safeguarding children and young people and vulnerable adults. The PCC has adopted the Church of England's policies and best practice on safeguarding which may be found on the Church of England's website: https://www.churchofengland.org/more/safeguarding.
Details of our parish safeguarding representative are: Mandy Pratt on 07834 323931 or mandypratt@sky.com. Or call - the Diocesan Safeguarding Team direct on 01245 294490.
