Saint Michael’s Church
Serving God and Bishop’s Stortford since 673
Baptisms and Weddings
Like Holy Communion,
the Sacraments of Holy Baptism and Holy Matrimony
are Christian Celebrations of
New Life in the Spirit.
Walk in the Spirit...(Galatians 5:16)
But before they can walk,
all must learn to crawl!
Later still, many are called
to walk in union with Christ and with
one significant other.

Funerals and Burials
Every Christian Funeral and Burial is a
Celebration of the Resurrection.
It's another reminder of what we believe.
We begin by looking back to Jesus:
On the third day he rose again
and we end with the Commendation, looking forward to
the resurrection of the body,
and the life everlasting. Amen.
Quotations in red are from The Apostles' Creed.
