Children's Ministries

THIS SUNDAY is the LAST DAY for GODLY PLAY this spring. We will resume Godly Play again in September. 

CHILDREN'S CHAPEL, at 9:00, will continue through the end of June, then take a break for 6 weeks. It will resume again in the middle of August - around the time school starts up again.

We are making some exciting changes in spaces for our children's ministry - stay tuned for updates, calls for help cleaning and moving this summer, and an Open House of the new spaces in August.

Getting Involved with God: 

Rediscovering the Old Testament

Book group with Pastor Kristin Schultz. Prior registration required at [email protected]

A Celebration of New Ministries for Rev. Canon Daniel Gutierrez and Rev. Chuck Jones will be held on  Sunday, June 5.

Bishop-Elect Gutierrez will preach at all morning services, and the newly ordained Chuck Jones will serve as deacon. We will have a celebration (with cake!) for Daniel and Chuck between the 9:00 and 11:15 services.

We have purchased a beautiful blank book for Fr. Daniel, and will be inviting congregation members to share their memories, good wishes, and blessings in that book, to present to Daniel on the 5th. It will be in the church entry way each week from now through the 5th, or you can come in to the church office and talk to Kathryn if you would like to write in the book. 

Families are invited to join the group from St Michael's in a trip to the  Navajo congregation of Good Shepherd Mission. We will help with corn  planting and building a patio for the mission coffee shop; the congregation  is hosting numerous cultural experiences for us. Cost is $30 per night per  person, and we will be preparing our own food.

The Roadrunner Food Bank has been very good to us, but we do need canned fruit.  For some reason, we just can't get it at Roadrunner.  Also, the brown shopping bags are always appreciated.  We generally go through 50 to 70 on a normal Tuesday.

May 27-29. We will lead a delegation to help participants learn more about the lived experience of immigrants in our community, offering the opportunity to meet with several immigrant families who will share some of the struggles they have faced in their journey to the US and life here. We will hear from agencies that support immigrants including health care providers, community organizers, attorneys, and educators. The $100 cost of the delegation includes three meals and local transportation. Some scholarship support available. Please RSVP by May 15 to Kathleen at [email protected] or call the Faith Coalition at 217-5846.
