About Us

i002

Welcome to our churches...

We are a group of three churches: St Alphege, St Helen’s and St Michael’s, serving central Solihull.

We share the vision of loving and serving God and seeking to be transformed by the Holy Spirit so that we can become more like Jesus and make a difference to our local community.

EVERYONE is welcome – we are multi-generational churches and aim to be inclusive and accepting of all people.

We would love to welcome you to our church families. The menu on the right will take you to each of the churches in the parish.
