The Joyful News!

Here are some of the exciting and important events for Children and Families

**St. Michael's Sunday School Class invites you to contribute to the Pennies for Peace campaign to help build schools for children in Pakistan and Afghanistan. Pennies for Peace collection jars are available in the Gallery next to the Pennies for Peace display and bank. Save your change to make a change! Every penny counts as we build the Kingdom of God and create a better world for all children. **

Christian Formation

Christian formation and education is a life-long process involving the heart as well as the head: coming to know God in Christ rather than just learning about God in Christ.

If you would like to be involved or have questions about Christian Formation at St. Michael's, please contact the Rector via the Contact Page.

Music and Worship

Lose your schedule, or just curious about who's preaching or singing Sunday? Check the Liturgical Ministers Schedule here.

If you missed a Sunday, or would like to read the sermon over again, sermons are being posted In The Church.

Our choirs including St. Michael's Singers provide musical leadership and inspiration to the congregation at the 9:00 and 11:00 services each Sunday. The choir is currently taking a summer break, but rehearsals will begin again this fall every Wednesday evening at 7:00 pm. Stay tuned.

Our Hispanic Ministry

Informe de la Comunidad Hispana

Many things are happening with our 1:00 congregation. There is a new image of Our Lady of Guadalupe in the vestibule. This image, beloved by Mexicans and people throughout Central America, was donated by Orlando Guinto and his wife Margarita de los Santos. Orlando’s sister purchased the image at the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Mexico City. It is a replica of the image found on the cloak of Juan Diego after Mary appeared to him on the hill of Tepayac near Mexico City in December 1531.

Please come and worship with us at 1:00 any time!
