Join us for the the greatest story ever told (narrated and performed) by the children of St. Michael's. Our live Christmas Pageant will be performed during the 10:30 AM service this Sunday. To have your child participate email [email protected].

Join us for the last extraordinary weekend of our Christmas Light Festival for 2021! From an abundance of light and interactive displays, to hot cocoa and s'mores, to Christmas carols and festive music-bring your family and friends for all the fun! Invite family, friends, and neighbors! (A special thank you to all our volunteers who helped hang lights, build displays, and prepare our campus for the 2nd Annual Christmas Light Festival.)

Volunteers Needed: CLICK HERE to sign up!

Join us as we celebrate the ministry of The Rev. Debbie Womack during the 5:00 PM service this Sunday. In the coming weeks Debbie and Lonnie will be moving out of state and we will be sad to see them go! The Womacks have been long time members and Debbie went through the discernment process for the diaconate at St. Michael's. If you are unable to join us, you can send well wishes to djw3936@gmail(dot)com.

St. Michael's has made a donation of $1,000 to the Episcopal Diocese of Kentucky to help respond to the devastation caused by severe weather earlier this month. If you would like to make a contribution to respond to relief efforts CLICK HERE to learn more. Many thanks to our Outreach Committee for helping us respond to the needs beyond our walls.

We are in need of help every Sunday as we worship God together. Can you be an usher, greeter, acolyte, or help with coffee hour at the 8:00 or 10:30 AM Service? CLICK HERE to let us know you can help.

We are gearing up for our next Archangel which will be covering January through February 22nd. To add in a short article (100-150 words) please send it to [email protected] by Tuesday, January 4th.

Every year the Salvation Army brings joy and cheer to their neighborhoods by ringing bells and raising funds for the multiple ministries they support throughout Colorado Springs. St. Michael’s will be able to participate in this important ministry on December 18 at from 10:00 AM – 6:00 PM.  You can sign up in pairs for two-hour slots. No experience needed, just holiday cheer! CLICK HERE to sign up.

We are in the process of forming a group to support widows, including information about handyman help and social gatherings 3-4 times a year. If you are interested please contact Beverly Raider 719-359-6279, or [email protected].
