In the heart of heighington and open to all
You are certain of a warm welcome at St Michael’s. Come
along to one of our services and worship God in a friendly and
inviting atmosphere. We have both Church of England and
Methodist members. The parish also has a second small
church, St Andrew’s, at Bolam. We are proud of our strong links
with Heighington CE Primary School.
If you come to a service at 9.30am on a Sunday or at 10am on a Thursday, please join us for tea or coffee and biscuits afterwards, with a pleasant chat, and also purchase items from the Traidcraft stall or bookshelf.
The
recently
refurbished
church
tower
was
originally
a
watch-tower
and
signal
station
—
but
now
provides
a
reference
point,
representing
peace of a different sort.
People
have
worshipped
here
for
centuries
–
St
Michael’s
has
stood
since
Norman
times
–
and
today
Christians
are
working
out
what
it
means
to
be
followers
of
Jesus
Christ
in
our
own
times too.
Our
church
is
the
centre
of
the
village,
and
as
a
congregation
we
seek
to
be
identified
with
the
community
of which we are a part.
