Homecoming Mass & Meal: Sunday, Nov. 19th, 4pm

Please make plans to attend, bring a dish to share and help us spread the word to those who have attended St. Michael’s in the past.  Celebrating this anniversary is to honor those that have built the foundation of our parish while looking with hope toward the future.  If you have pictures for the slide show of memories at St. Michael’s or pictures of former members who have passed away, please email them to stmichaelspicdir@gmail.com or give them to Jenny or Patti.

Help with Homecoming: Families are asked to bring portraits of parishioners who have passed away to put in a special place on the altar.  If you are able to help decorate on Sunday please let Patti know.

Mass Schedule:  Please note there will be no 10:30am mass next Sunday since the Anniversary Mass is at 4pm.

Thanks to all those who responded generously to the second collection for those affected by earthquakes and hurricanes.  Our parish collected $944!  75% will go to Fr. Carmelo’s home diocese.

Parish Council Elections: Each year two members of the Parish Council rotate off.  Thanks to Jimmy Frederick and Peggy Howell for their three years of service in leadership of our parish!  Please consider if you would like to serve in this role or who you would like to nominate on Nov. 26th & Dec. 3rd.  Anyone who attends mass at St. Michael’s is eligible and two people will be chosen by lot on Dec. 10th.  The Dec. 4th, 6pm Parish Council meeting will be an open meeting for anyone to attend.
