Welcome to the Parish of Letchworth
FROM SUNDAY, 12TH JULY OUR DOORS WILL REOPEN FOR PUBLIC WORSHIP.
Please inform Fr Robert about your intention to attend as the numbers are strictly limited by social distancing.
The 10.30 Sunday Eucharist will be live streamed on our Facebook Page in order to allow those who are not able to attend to make their spiritual communion at home.
Stay safe and well.
*********
We are a welcoming and growing Christian community located in the heart of Letchworth.
Our Parish lies in the southwest of the Garden City and has two churches, of St Michael the Archangel (the parish church) and of St Mary the Virgin, each offering a distinctive style of worship. We are part of the Anglican Diocese of St Albans.
We would love to welcome you at any of our services (please browse these pages for details) taking place in both churches. We also have the Parish Hall available for hire for community events and various regular group activities.
Some of our meetings and social events take place in the Parish Hall located next to St Michael's Church. Currently, due to some ongoing problems with the church building, the 10.30 Sung Parish Mass on a Sunday has been moved to the Hall.
You are welcome to come and join us at any time. If you’d like to find out more, send us a message via this page or get in touch with our Parish Priest, Fr Robert Kozak.
We are looking forward to meeting you soon!

St Michael the Archangel
St.Albans
Welcome to St Michael's, Broadway.
We worship in an Anglo-Catholic tradition (with singing, incense, bells) and offer a warm welcome to all.
The modern Church of St Michael the Archangel is located in the town center, adjacent to the Broadway Gardens (by the fountain). Unfortunately, our church building is now closed. All services are now taking place in the adjacent Parish Hall (and some are live streamed online). Do join us.
Designed by the distinguished architect, Laurence King, St Michael's was consecrated on 14th November 1967. The outline shape and interior arrangement was inspired by the early principle of a gathered Eucharistic community. Due to some ongoing problems with the building our Sunday morning Parish Mass currently takes place in the Parish Hall.
Come and explore life with God at your parish church.

St Mary the Virgin
St.Albans
Welcome to St Mary's, Letchworth Lane.
St Mary's is probably the oldest building in Letchworth and it lies at the heart of the original hamlet of Letchworth. Parts of this medieval church date back to the eleventh century. It is built on the site of an earlier church. It is also one of the smallest churches in the area. It is surrounded by a small but beautiful church yard, where there is also a Garden of Remembrance with a bench for those who want to sit quietly.
The church is open for worship each Wednesday and Sunday morning and we pray in the traditional language. Lots of the Garden City pioneers had a lifelong association with St Mary’s and are at eternal rest there. We also have a very faithful and welcoming congregation with long established family connections.
Come and join us in prayer and friendship.
