Opportunities for Giving

Casa Maria will meet this Friday at 6 pm. in the Parish Center to prepare sack lunches. Your help is needed – the volunteers can always use a few eggstra hands and SHELLED hard-boiled eggs. Join them for fellowship and to help with this good work.

Altar Guild: Do you feel there could be something more that you could offer to God and your church other than your monetary stewardship? Consider joining the Altar Guild! The Altar Guild is responsible for preparing those things necessary for the celebration of the Eucharist and the observance of other Sacraments of the church. Please contact the Parish Office for more information.

The Book of Pipes Campaign

The Book of Pipes is a historical listing of those living and deceased who have made a difference in our lives, the community and the world. Each name commemorated will correspond to one of the 2,900 pipes in our American Classic Aeolian Skinner Pipe Organ. Each dedicated pipe will sing continually of the person it memorializes or honors as it also sings the praises of God Almighty. The funds raised go toward ensuring that beautiful music is heard and taught within the walls of St. Michael's Church.
