What is Thy Kingdom Come all about? It's about Prayer.

The idea of praying can seem daunting. It is chatting and listening to God just as you would with a good friend. Sometimes we make it far too complicated. Yet we believe that when we pray with sincerity, there’s no imagining what God can do with our prayers. There are people who re-ally welcome someone praying for them, even if it’s not something they usually do.

So why 10 days of prayer? In the days between Ascension and Pentecost, it has been the habit of many Christians, for many centuries, to have a focused time of prayers the same as those first believers.

Then the apostles returned to Jerusalem from the hill called the Mount of Olives... When they ar-rived, they went upstairs to the room where they were staying... They all joined together constant-ly in prayer, along with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.
Acts 1:12-14

St Michael & All Angels

A warm welcome awaits you at St Michael's. 

Welcome to St Michael and All Angel’s - whether you are just looking, visiting the area, returning to church or finding a new place to be, welcome!

We are the parish church for Felton, Swarland and surrounding villages, and have a growing church family of all ages. We are people who enjoy coming together to serve God and the local community, both inside and outside our beautiful church building. Our worship services provide traditional and modern styles of worship (see details in the ‘services’ section’).  Fellowship continues after the 11.00am service with coffee and opportunities to chat, support and further build friendships.

We also meet together during the week for friendship, prayer and bible study, with a number of small groups, and daily prayer taking place on WhatsApp.

We have a heart for building relationships and a deep sense of community in Felton and the surrounding villages. The church family at St Michael’s is committed to showing Jesus’ love in practical ways to support people in the local community. We can provide listening and/or prayer, we can visit or provide practical help in times of difficulty.

‘Food and Fun’ for pre-school children and parents or carers, the Seniors lunch and the Community teas are just some of the ways that we do this.

If you, or someone you know is in need of prayer or practical help with something please contact Rev Rich Townend.

The parish of Felton: St Michael & All Angels is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer(s), PSOs. The Diocese of Newcastle’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor (DSA) who advise our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the DSA. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority Children or Adults Services.
