About

St Michael’s offers you a very warm welcome - we hope to inspire a sense of community, friendship and an encounter with wonder and mystery. We seek to know God’s presence in the world through worship and music, prayer and meditation, community activity and service, celebration and learning. We rejoice in the richness of this heritage and seek to make it available to all.

Ecumenicism - St. Michael’s warmly welcomes those from other churches in communion with the Church of England and other Christian denominations to worship here.

A place of training and development – for many years, St Michael’s has been an inspirational centre of learning, for those developing their musical gifts, their love of liturgy and exploration of the creative arts. Our vision is to offer a range of scholarships and opportunities for training and development for people of all ages and backgrounds.

Equality, diversity and inclusion - St. Michael’s is an inclusive church which seeks to celebrate and affirm every person. A special service is coordinated to celebrate and pray for inclusion and equality in association with Pride Exeter in the city. Practical access provision includes wheelchair access via the great west doors, good lighting, large print books, and a hearing loop.

Jonathan Neale’s  landscape photograph of St Michael’s, is below. He writes, “… best of all I love to see how light illuminates the beauty of creation, the way it warms rocks, glistens in the leaves, dances in the surf and as night falls watch it fade in the clouds”.
