Online Prayer Calls

The organisation 24/7 Prayer have organised online prayer calls around the world for throughout the week. Leaders from around the 24-7 Prayer movement have volunteered to lead each hour-long session. This is a unique opportunity for us to pray alongside people from all around the world.

Practical details: These calls are hosted on Teams. You’ll be able to see and hear the livestream, and you’ll be able to send messages into the chat, but you won’t be able to turn on your camera or microphone. Click the “Register” link for the session you want to join. You’ll be prompted to give your email address, and then you’ll be sent the information you need for how to join the call.


Clothes Swap

Clothes Swap

On Saturday 26 September we are holding a Clothes Swap 10am – 12pm in the Auditorium in St Michael’s Centre.

What is a Clothes Swap? 

It is described as “where people gather to exchange clothing that they no longer wear.  This helps in responsibly rehoming clothes that no longer have value to you but could be just the right thing for someone else’s wardrobe. In a world thriving on overproduction of clothes, a clothes swap is a way to extend the lifetime of the clothing we already own, and making our wardrobes more economic”. 

For this event, please bring up to 10 items to swap and update your wardrobe!  Men’s, women’s or child’s clothes ( ages over 5 only), shoes or accessories that are of good quality, clean, dry, and wearable (no underwear please) 
 When you bring some clothes, you will be given a token to us to “buy” items that other people have brought along!

Donations in aid of St Michael’s Stoke Gifford Primary School, who will also have pre-loved uniform for sale.

Saturday Breakfast

Why not come along, eat breakfast with others in a relaxed and friendly setting, and listen to an interesting and inspiring talk?

We gather in the auditorium to eat together, and then listen to a talk.

Each month we have a different speaker on a range of topics. This month, our guest speakers are from our Mission Support team, sharing stories of recent trips abroad.

Please sign-up in advance if you can, so that we can order and make enough food.
If you can no longer make it, please let us know.
Suggested donation £5 per adult (£1 per child).  You can donate by card when you sign-up, or on the day via cash or card

Coffee Shop Update

Exciting improvements are coming to the Coffee Shop!

Throughout August, we’ll be installing a brand-new, hard-wearing wooden floor in both the Coffee Shop and the Lower Hall. We’re looking forward to creating an even better space for everyone to enjoy.

While this essential work is taking place, there will be a few temporary changes to our opening arrangements:

  • Monday 3 August – Friday 7 August: The Coffee Shop will be open as usual, but operating from the Lower Hall.
  • Monday 10 August – Friday 14 August: The Coffee Shop will be closed while the new floor is installed.
  • Monday 17 August – Friday 28 August: The Lower Hall will be closed, but the Coffee Shop will be open as normal in its newly refurbished space.

Saturday opening:
To help us manage the refurbishment, the Coffee Shop will be closed on all Saturdays throughout August (1, 8, 15, 22 and 29 August). We’ll let you know our Saturday opening plans for September onwards as soon as they’re confirmed.

Thank you for your patience and understanding while we carry out these improvements. We can’t wait to welcome you back to enjoy the refreshed Coffee Shop!

We’re also looking for some willing volunteers to help us move furniture on 8 and 15 August. If you can help please fill in the form here or get in touch with the church office
