Announcing our New Associate Rector
I am very excited to share with you that The Rev. J. Antonio Álvarez (Padre Toni) has accepted my invitation to join us at St. Michael’s as Associate Rector for Latino Ministry and Formation. Padre Toni currently serves as Priest-in-charge of St. Francis Episcopal Church in Turlock, California. A child of Mexican immigrants and a native of the San Joaquin Valley of California, he is a bilingual and bicultural person and priest.
Music for Sunday, May 18
The St. Michael’s Choristers finish up their season this Sunday at 9:00 am, singing an anthem all on their own during communion. Their anthem, “Ching-a-Ring Chaw,” arranged by celebrated American composer Aaron Copland (1900-1990), is one that requires some context.
All-Parish Eucharist & Potluck in the Park
Mark your calendars! We will celebrate the Feast of Pentecost on Sunday, June 8, with a bilingual Eucharist and potluck lunch at 11:00 am in Wilshire Park. This gathering is earlier this year so that more people might be able to attend and participate in this festive Sunday event.
