Stewardship: Annual Campaign for 2025
Our Annual Campaign for St. Michael’s is now live. The Stewardship Chair and Rector's letter is linked below. You can pick up a copy of the letter and pledge card on Sunday, and talk with a member of the Stewardship Committee in the narthex/entryway. All pledges turned in before November 3 will be blessed that Sunday as we celebrate our Ingathering.

As you are able, please pickup peanut butter, canned vegetables, or canned fruit and leave it in the baskets in the Narthex on Sundays, or in the box marked “food pantry” in the front office Monday through Thursday from 9am to 3pm. Paper grocery bags and egg cartons are always still welcome, as are new volunteers. Thanks to all for the help this summer season as we feed an average of 235 people per week!

Thank you for being a conduit of Divine love to these families who have suffered so much!
