In ideal contexts the church attempts to cater to all age groups and their preferd worshtp styles. However. the Book of Common Prayer IBCPI evenin8 prayer has seen reduced numbers slnce the pandemic Therefore. a decision was made to cease this provision but maInS under continual VIeW.

These changes made worshTrp easier. Therefi)re. a deci5itsn was made to concentrate upon building up fao to face services with a determined effort to encourage people to retum and to con501idate thurth attendance. This has been very successful. One specific area of growth is the inueased attendan by famllles and thUdrerL Marry are exploring faith for the first time whilst others have been received into the Church of £npJand from the Roman Catholic Church.

Pastoral Offices-weddin tisms funerals As well as our gUlar services we enable our community to celebrate and thank God at the milestones of the journey through life. The church has enhanced tlf engagement with the many people who bring children to baptism through improved hospitality and administration, baptism preparation, goody bags, annNersary rs. Through baptism we thank God for the gift of life and in marriage public vows are exchanged with God's blessings. The reviewed baptism policy and pack with a more user friendly baptism preparation was very effective in preparing families for the baptism. A database of baptisms with contatt infomiation has been productive to enable easier contact with families for promotion and publldty of ser¥lces and events. FtEures Indlote a posltlve Increase In children and famllles attendance at churth. Baptism service has continued to take place on Sunday at 4pm. Feedback from baptism familles has been posttive.

Enquiries for baptisms increased In number and this trend continued into 2023. Baptism preparation and practical rehearsal with fa t face contsrt was reinstated following easlng of restrictions.

Weddln8 ministry has developed steadily. Use of hrgh44ualrty materials called JustAsk' has been used to communicate with wedding couples.

In February a service for the blessing of wedding rlngs took place while in October the renewal of vows at a Golden Anniversary took place in a Sunday Holy Communion Service. Wedding preparation has used a hybrid approach indudin8 face to face when possible and zoom where appropriate.

Fundamental and vital to the future of St. Michael's is the need for a new and fresh vision relative to the mis5ional' context and t4e vlsion of Llthflcld DI0Se. A placement student sent from Uchfield Dioose raised the theme of vocatlon withln the parfsh.
