New Parish Photo Directory: Everyone who attends mass at St. Michael’s is invited to sign up for a photo session! Local photographer Amanda Dale Coomes is having 20 minute sessions for $5. So grab your kids, grandkids, pets & props and come over to Sebree Springs Park! On the bulletin board and on our website are the sign up sheets and prices for prints. The first round will be this Thursday, May 18th! These photos will be used for our 40th anniversary commemorative photo directory in the Fall.
Photos for Slideshow: During the 40th anniversary celebration we would also like to have a slide show going of pictures from over the years. Please dig out some of your photos of parish life. If you give them to Jenny Glenn in an envelope with your name on it then she will scan them and return them to you.
Youth Group Summer Plans: Our middle & high school youth group would like to take a pilgrimage & fun trip to St. Louis as well as a Holiday World trip over the Summer. Would you like to be a chaperone? Ask Patti how! Or would you like to donate toward the trip for those that can’t afford it? Donations are welcome! The youth are also looking for service projects over the summer. Please let Patti know if you have an idea of something they could help with.
