St Michael's Church, Stoke Gifford
Living to make a difference
On Sunday 14 June, our Ten-Thirty Celebration will be transformed into something a little different.
We are thrilled to be welcoming Gemma Hunt (from CBeebies Swashbuckle) to host a special Pirate Praise Party!
It looks set to be a wonderful morning of interactive, all-singing, all-dancing, storytelling pirate fun, where faith and adventure set sail!
Everyone is welcome, no booking required, but come early to get a good seat!
Service
From 19 April, we are looking at the practice of Service, as part of our teaching series, Practicing the Way, where we learn habits to help us become more like Jesus, and develop a Rule of Life.
We will be exploring the theme of Service and following individual sermon titles each Sunday
These sermons can be seen on our Rule of Life: Serving playlist on YouTube
This Practice is also perfect to use with Life groups, with detailed videos and resources available to Life group leaders
The Rule of Life podcast also has a series on service, which is available on Spotify.
Serving Together
Serving together is right at the heart of everything we do. Most of our activities are run and facilitated by volunteers. We hope that everyone will find a way to get involved.
Some teams require a certain level of skill or experience whilst for others, no previous experience is necessary.
Either way, we would love to help you connect and find ways of getting stuck in.

Confirmation is a special church service in which a person confirms the promises that were made when they were baptized. If you were baptized at a christening when you were a child, your parents and godparents made these promises on your behalf. As a young person or adult, you may be ready to affirm these promises for yourself and commit your life to following Jesus Christ. Or perhaps you were baptized as an adult and are now ready to confirm those promises.
At a confirmation service, you make these promises for yourself. Your friends and family will be there to promise to support and pray for you.
This year, there is the opportunity to be confirmed at the Deanery Confirmation service at Christ the King, Bradley Stoke on Sunday 21 June at 4pm
If you would like to be confirmed, please complete the online form here by 20 May or get in touch if you would like more information.
Sunday teaching is a key part of St Michael’s. We aim to have a series of engaging and thought-provoking topics to deepen our understanding of the Bible and its relevance in our lives today.
From exploring foundational biblical principles, to addressing pressing contemporary issues, our aim is to equip and inspire each member of our communities to live out their faith with purpose and conviction. Join us as we seek to grow together in knowledge, wisdom, and love.
