Over the years, St Michael’s Mount Dinham has drawn to itself a diverse group of people with a generous spirit and a wide range of religious and other views. St Michael’s has become well-known for its faithful preservation of Anglo-Catholic ritual through liturgy and music, for an atmosphere both festive and reverential and for heart warming celebrations and events.

Throughout the year, special Feast Days, services and events draw together members of the wider communities of St Michael’s; known as its diaspora. Although the Church has no geographical parish of its own (it is physically situated within the parish of St David, Exeter), our experience is that St Michael’s is home to a network of communities from the locality of Mount Dinham, across the City of Exeter, from the South West region, other parts of the United Kingdom and even across the globe.

St. Michael’s is fortunate to enjoy key partnerships and associations in the locality. See our Neighbours and Partners page for more information.

Our diaspora is also much more even than those who are able to join us in person on Mount Dinham. Thanks to the digital age and new ways of connecting through the pandemic, St Michael’s is able to keep in touch online through streamed services, activity and discussions. Perhaps unique to St Michael’s, many join regular worship through the live broadcasting of the evening service of Plainchant Vespers, offered at 6:00 pm every Tuesday and Thursday via Facebook.

Through a common heartfelt association with St Michael’s Mount Dinham, you will find a warm welcome, a community spirit and the love of God for everyone, whether our connection is new or very long standing.
