We are part of a network of local churches working with and alongside Sutton Community Works to support our local community in times of need. One part of that support is with access to food and the opportunity to see an advice worker from the Citizens Advice Bureau. Whilst our foodbank is open every week, you will require a voucher before we can offer you food. To secure a voucher, please take a look at this page and contact one of the agencies here: https://sutton.foodbank.org.uk/get-help/how-to-get-help/ We hope we can support you in your time of need, and hope also you will feel most welcome in our church. Do stay for a cuppa, chat with our volunteers and if you wish ask to see our Priest who is always glad to pop over or to contact you at another time.

St Mike's Tykes is a newly forming gathering of primary aged children, with their responsible adult (or two) and any siblings, for storytelling, singing, crafts and food every Thursday from 4-6pm in St Michael's Church. If you are coming along for the first time do call Mthr Berni on 07502 411918 or email [email protected] to help us cater for numbers and any dietary requirements as we eat a cooked tea together. All are welcome whether for a one off or to be with us for the long term.

On Tues, Thurs and Sat mornings we open our doors for all who wish to come visit the church, pray, light a candle or join with others for coffee and chat. We have a comfy sofa area for those who wish to sit and read, play a game or simply enjoy a time of quiet, and you will find others sitting with a cuppa ready to chat or answer questions around the table by the kitchenette. Coffee, tea and biscuits always available and if you wish to chat about baptism, marriage or a funeral do ask for someone to call or knock for the Vicar!

The church is open for prayer and you are welcome to join a simple service using Common Worship daily prayer (https://www.churchofengland.org/prayer-and-worship/join-us-service-daily-prayer) or simply to sit and pray quietly. Prayers are kept in the Lady Chapel which will be lit and is towards the front right of the church. Most evenings there is the opportunity to pray before the Blessed Sacrament which will be exposed on the altar. You are welcome to sit or to kneel in silence and/or to light a candle. If you wish to speak with the Priest please wait until the sacrament has been removed from the altar (no longer than 20 minutes). All are welcome.

Sung Parish Mass in the Catholic tradition of the Church of England. St Michael & All Angels is an Anglican (Church of England) Church in the modern Anglo-Catholic tradition. What does Anglo-Catholic mean? In essence, The term 'Anglo-Catholicism' describes a range of theological views and traditions within Anglicanism which emphasise the continuity of the Church of England - and those churches born out of it - with the teaching and practice of Christianity throughout the ages, rooted in scripture and the teachings of the early church. 'Anglo-Catholics' have always valued the sacramental life of the church, adhering strongly to doctrine such as the real presence of Christ in the Eucharist and the continuity of the apostolic orders of Bishop, Priest and Deacon. A significant stress on liturgy and worship - performed in order to maintain the beauty of holiness - makes worship in an Anglo-Catholic church an experience which is intended to appeal to one's whole person - to heart as well as head, to senses as well as to intellect.

A traditional service of choral music and readings, with a couple of congregational hymns. We have a stunning choir with male and female, adult and child voices and this service is a real treat for those familiar with the life of the church and those simply looking for an evening to sit comfortably in a beautiful setting enriched by sung and spoken worship. All are warmly welcomed and our Director of Music always delighted to hear from those who might like to join our choir.
