Reflective Spaces

Monthly. Every Fourth Wednesday at for 1 hour
Aldbourne: St Michael
Crooked Corner Aldbourne Wiltshire, SN8 2EL, United Kingdom

A reflective journey based on a theme, largely using spoken and sung resources from the Iona Community

Pentecost: Wednesday 27th May
Our annual opportunity to celebrate the birthday of the Church - not with cake but with the Fruits of the Spirit, cultivated through the Gifts of the Spirit. Come and join us for a quiet time of joyful celebration - who knows what the Holy Spirit might have on the special menu for you?
*********
Wednesday 25th March 2026
As Jesus continues his journey towards Jerusalem, we pause with him at the home of Lazarus to ponder on the forerunner of the events of Easter.
*********
28th January 2026
Reflective Spaces for January follows our annual practice of echoing the theme of the Week of Prayer for Christian Unity which formally runs from 18-25 January. For 2026 the theme is "One body, one Spirit" based on the verse from Paul's letter to the Ephesians. Do join us on Wednesday 28th January at 7.00pm in St Michael's Aldbourne to reflect, pray and sing on the theme of Christian unity.
**********
24th September 2025
Our service will follow the theme of this year's worldwide Season of Creation which is "Peace with Creation". We will reflect on the connection between caring for creation and fostering peace - and using the onset of autumn to think about letting fall some of our own withered leaves. Do join us in St Michael's Aldbourne at 7pm.

Aldbourne: St Michael

St. Michael and All Angels, Aldbourne is an active church in a busy community. We have strong links with our C of E primary school next door, where we offer Collective Worship, 'Share the Story', lunchtime clubs and have some of our church members as foundation governors.

We share with our friends in Aldbourne Methodist Church in reaching out in service to the community. We support the Swindon Food Collective with regular donations of food.

Several of our members are taking the lead in encouraging us to be more environmentally aware and active.

We are grateful to the 'Friends of St. Michael's Church Aldbourne' for raising money to help with us with maintaining our historic building.
