Paul has been serving as a supply priest and short term interim in 12 churches across the Sangre de Cristo Region and throughout the Diocese of Colorado.

All parents and adults are invited to participate in our Youth Mental Health First Aid Training. Learn how to identify, understand and respond to signs of mental illness and substance use disorders in youth. This 8-hour training gives parents/mentors/adults who work with youth the skills they need to reach out and provide initial support to children and adolescents (ages 6-18). This is a pay what you can event, $60 covers registration and lunch for one person. Pay at the door with cash or checks payable to “St. Michael’s Episcopal Church.” Please reach out to Owen if you would like to make a donation to sponsor participants. CLICK HERE to register.

"I want to personally thank you for your many donations to the Boulder Fire victims. Most don't even own a fork or spoon! I know this first hand because, sadly, my daughter and family lost their home and everything in it. In fact, they lost their entire neighborhood! Thankfully, all are safe! Anything and everything is appreciated! Your generosity is very comforting!"

St. Michael's has heard from so many who have generous donated essential items, gift cards, and financial contributions. Our last day for collecting donations will be January 23. Donations can be dropped off in the gathering space.

As we start a new year we are in need of quarters (or bills that we can turn into quarters) to wash and dry hundreds of loads of laundry each week. The laundry love donation point is in the detergent container in the Gathering space. CLICK HERE to sign up to volunteer on Monday mornings. Questions? Contact Deacon Gary at [email protected].
