On Sunday, July 7, we celebrated the baptism of baby Anders. Many have shared that it was a deeply meaningful and moving experience. And I share those feelings. As I said then, baptism “is pure gift for this child of God: nothing professed or proclaimed or accomplished to earn it. It is the beginning of a life nested in God’s love, marked as Christ’s own for ever, beloved by a community of deep commitment and care.”
On Sunday, July 14, James Walker began his long-term organist sub position at St. Michael’s. He is an extraordinary organist and will be playing some favorites this summer.
In October of 2022, The Episcopal Church of Western Oregon (our Diocese) joined with the national Episcopal Church by committing to work toward achieving carbon neutrality by the year 2030. It was clear that reaching this goal would not be easy. But when faced with the destructive and devastating peril posed by climate change, already visible in increased flooding, droughts, hurricanes and wildfires, the church was determined to confront this crisis that was already harming God’s creation.
The Vestry has approved creation of a summer ministry internship at St. Michael’s. The position is for a rising college junior or senior, studying religion, education, social sciences, or another related field, to join the staff for six weeks during the summer. The focus of this position will be support youth ministry in the summer, including the summer retreat/service trip, meetups, and planning for fall programming.
Our curate, the Rev. SuEllen Pommier, is offering a five-week spirit-focused creative writing group beginning Thursday, May 23. SuEllen offered this writing group for many years in a clinical setting, but she is excited to make it available in a religious space where there is the opportunity to creatively explore meaning and spirituality and employ a scripture-based format. “The Spirited Pen” group will meet in the Raphael Room, tentatively from 12:00 to 1:00 pm.

Tomorrow, Sunday, January 14, there will be one worship service only at 11:00 am, in the building and online. The 7:30 and 9:00 am services are cancelled. Beto+ is leading Morning Prayer in Spanish on Facebook at 1:00 pm.
We are hopeful that Liturgy of the Word will happen and Choristers rehearsal as well unless those folks hear from Brian.
Conditions allowing, we will still offer our Candidates Forum at 10:15 am with Helen Crandell and Scott+ in the Nativity Hall.
The Cathedral Trio concert scheduled for tonight, Saturday, January 20, has also been postponed. Please look for the new date coming soon.
