The Rector's Space
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.
Lenten Forum Series Concludes
Our weekly Lenten Forum series, facilitated by Seminarian Matt Haines, concludes on Sunday, April 6, at 10:15 am in the Nativity Hall. Matt is leading an exploration of Episcopal saints from twentieth-century America whose faith caused them to radically live out the Baptismal Covenant.
Advocacy Day on Monday, April 7
Through a generous grant from our Outreach & Justice Council, St. Michael’s is sponsoring Advocacy Day on April 7. This will be a day of building community, sharing our stories and advocating for values-based legislation in Salem through group meetings with our legislators.
Holden Evening Prayer in Lent
Holden Evening Prayer will be held just one more Wednesday, on April 9. Join us in the Parish Hall for a simple soup supper at 5:30 pm, followed by this beloved prayer service in the chancel at 6:15 pm, lasting less than 30 minutes in length.
