All are welcome for our remaining Holy Week and Easter services! Tonight, April 18, is our bilingual Good Friday liturgy which includes Stations of the Cross and veneration of the Cross. Tomorrow night is our most important feast of the year, the Easter Vigil. There will be candlelight, hymns that we sing only at this service, and creatively presented traditional readings. Light incense will be used at this service.

Our summer schedule begins on Sunday, June 30! Our services will be at 8:00 am (Rite I) and 10:00 am. We hope that this more relaxed schedule will work well for clergy, staff and parishioners, and will offer the opportunity for people who consistently attend the 9:00 or the 11:00 to worship together for a couple of months.
All are invited to join us here at St. Michael’s for our Holy Week services, starting with Palm Sunday on March 24 and ending with Easter Sunday on March 31.

Our summer Sunday schedule begins on June 18. Our morning services will be at 7:30 and 10:00 am, and the 1:00 pm service in Spanish will continue as usual. If there are forums, as there is on June 18, those will happen at 11:15 am. The 10:00 am service will continue to be livestreamed as usual.
