I continue to be humbled by the generosity of St. Michael’s parishionersI In the past two months, you have contributed hugely to Sherman’s going-away purse, and you have responded with gifts surpassing our target for Rev. Painter’s moving costs. Truly amazing!
It’s Easter-tide! A time of rebirth, regrowth, regeneration, and We’ll retell the story of the ascension of Christ into heaven, and we’ll celebrate the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.

A new day is dawning at St. Michael & All Angels. Last Sunday, we joyously celebrated the ministry of Rev. Sherman Hesselgrave. We will be forever grateful for his guidance and leadership through a difficult transition. He has earned some well-deserved rest and relaxation, and we wish Sherman safe travels in the coming weeks.
Please welcome the Rev. Dr. Robert R. Williams at the 9:00 and 11:00 am services on Sunday, May 7, to preside and preach.

All are invited to the Rev. Sherman Hesselgrave’s last Sunday, on April 30, as Interim Rector at St. Michael’s. He has been with us since February 2022 and taken on more and more responsibilities. His presence has been a true gift to our community!
Dear Friends,
As we approach the conclusion of our interim sojourn together, there are a few things I would like to say in my final Eblast epistle. (Helen Crandell will be writing next week’s message before my last Sunday.)
Wendell Berry says, “The care of the Earth is our most ancient and most worthy and, after all, our most pleasing responsibility. To cherish what remains of it, and to foster its renewal, is our only legitimate hope.”
This Sunday, the day after Earth Day, we will sing several hymns to celebrate our beautiful planet, particularly at the 11am service.
