Ministries at St. Michael's

The ministries of St. Michael's offer many ways for parishioners to engage in the varied facets of parish life, particularly helping with worship and supporting the growth and beautification of the church.

Pastoral Ministries
Through
Pastoral Ministries, the parish shares in the joys and sorrows of parishioners to offer support and prayer. It is important to notify the church at a time of personal crisis, illness, or life changing event for you or anyone you know.  The Rector should be called whenever a birth, hospitalization, or death occur.
