The commemorative plaque honoring those whose generosity made the renovation of our sanctuary possible has now been completed and is displayed on the side wall at the back of the church.

Thank you for your generous support and faithful stewardship. Your gift has helped renew our sanctuary as a sacred place where countless people, today and in the generations to come, will gather to pray, worship, celebrate the sacraments, and encounter the living presence of God.

The fruits of your generosity extend far beyond the beauty of the renovated sanctuary. Through your support, you have contributed to the spiritual life of our parish and have become a partner in the Church's mission of leading souls to Christ. Every prayer offered, every Mass celebrated, every sacrament received, and every heart touched by God's grace in this holy place will stand as a lasting testimony to your generosity.

May the Lord, who can never be outdone in generosity, bless you and your family abundantly. May He reward your kindness with His peace, strengthen you with His grace, and keep you always in His loving care.

After the 4:00 PM Mass on Sunday, May 31, our Youth Group gathered to bake cookies for the Pine Street Ministry. It was a grace-filled opportunity to witness our young people come together with joyful hearts, generous spirits, and a genuine desire to serve. Through this simple yet meaningful ministry, they not only provided for those in need, but also deepened their understanding of what it means to live as disciples of Christ. In serving others, they encountered the joy of Christian community and the blessing of sharing God’s love through their actions.
 
Moments like this remind us that faith formation extends far beyond the classroom and the walls of the church. Our faith comes alive when it is expressed through acts of charity, compassion, and selfless service. As our youth offer their time and talents for the good of others, they become living witnesses to the Gospel and instruments of God’s love in our parish and the wider community. Their willingness to serve, collaborate, and grow together in friendship reflects the transformative power of Christ at work in their lives.
 
We are especially grateful to Annemarie Silver, the supervisor of our Youth Group, for her faithful guidance, inspiring leadership, and devoted care for our young people. Through her commitment and encouragement, she helps foster a welcoming, prayerful, and faith-filled environment where our youth can grow as disciples, deepen their relationship with Christ, and embrace lives of service and fellowship.
 
May God continue to bless our Youth Group, their families, and all those who generously support this important ministry. May our young people always know that they are deeply loved by God, richly gifted, and called by Christ to share His light, hope, and goodness with the world.

On May 17, after the 10:00 AM Sunday Mass, St. Michael Parish joyfully celebrated our Ministry Fair in the Parish Center.
 
Our parish is blessed with 32 ministries, each serving the life and mission of our parish in an important and unique way. These ministries reflect the many gifts of our parishioners and the beautiful ways the Holy Spirit continues to work through our community.
 
We are deeply grateful to all who serve so generously in the many areas of parish life. Through their dedication, our parish becomes a living sign of Christ’s love, service, and communion.
 
May the Lord continue to bless all our ministries, inspire more parishioners to share their gifts, and help us grow together as one parish family in faith, hope, and love.
