The Community Library for St Michael’s is situated above the Old School Rooms Coffee Shop and is open on alternate Tuesday afternoons from 2pm till 4pm.
Why not come along, eat breakfast with others in a relaxed and friendly setting, and listen to an interesting and inspiring talk?
We will be gathering in the auditorium to eat together, followed by a talk.
Each month we have a different speaker on a range of topics.
Our guest speaker this month is Andy Atkins, CEO of A Rocha UK, a Christian charity working to protect and restore the natural world and committed to equipping Christians and churches in the UK to care for the environment. St Michael’s has a Bronze Eco Church Award and we are looking forward to hearing Andy speak to us.

Upcott is a Christian charity committed to providing an environment where young people can experience the fulness of Jesus in their lives.
Many young people from St Michael’s have attended Upcott Weeks over the years. Some have helped on weeks or done gap years and others are now serving as trustees.
The Trust is in a period of transition. For over fifty years the work was based in a residential environment, the original Upcott in Seaton, Devon between 1968 and 2007 and then The Beacon in Minehead from 2007 to 2019. But with the sale of The Beacon we are moving into a new phase. We will continue to run residential weeks. To that we have added on-line discipleship and study groups, enabling young people to have a vibrant relationship with Jesus that is outworked on a daily basis. We are also developing online resources to further support young people in their relationship with Jesus.
Update October 2023
