Saint Paul's is our sister church and Father Robert Fayers was Licensed as Priest-in-Charge of that Parish on 17 November 2006, having previously had pastoral care of it in recent years. Owing to this modern day link the two churches now work closely together. However, there are also many historic links:
Father Charles Beanlands, the first Perpetual Curate of S. Michael's, began his ministry as an Assistant Curate at S. Paul's, serving there for 11 years under the legendary Father Arthur Wagner. At S. Paul's Fr. Beanlands would have met George Bodley who worshipped there and served there as churchwarden.
Both churches were at the forefront of the Anglo Catholic movement in the 19th Century and remain so to this day.
