In loving Remembrance
Planting New Roots In the Old Hood
We are continuing to celebrate 150 years of St. Michael's presence in the neighborhood.
One of our goals was to plant 150 trees to mark this great milestone.
If you are interested in purchasing a tree in memory of a loved one, forms are available in the rectory for our spring planting
For more information see a team member.
Stewardship
Both widows in today's readings gave all they had to the work of the Lord, one using all the remaining food to feed Eliajh and the other offering her two copper coins in the temple treasury. Faithful stewards give all that is asked and trust the lord to be faithful to His promises.
$5.00 a month club
We continue with the club and we encourage all our members to be up to date so that all members will be elegible for this month's drawing.
