Advocacy Action Opportunity
Instead of a table with letters to sign, this week, Advocacy Action is requesting members of St. Michael’s to email the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) asking them to deny Zenith Energy’s air-quality permit. Zenith Energy operates an oil-processing and storage facility on the banks of the Willamette River in NW Portland.

Music Update
Please join us for a Choral Evensong this Saturday, June 7, at 5:00 pm for the Eve of Pentecost. Music will be led by the St. Michael’s Singers as their last service until September.

Announcing our New Associate Rector

A child of Mexican immigrants and a native of the San Joaquin Valley of California, he is a bilingual and bicultural person and priest.
