THE FIRST SUNDAY AFTER THE EPIPHANY: BAPTISM OF OUR LORD
JANUARY 12, 2020
Welcome to Saint Michael and All Angels! While many have the best intentions surrounding New Year’s resolutions that may only last a few weeks, let us instead go a step further, as a parish and individually, and re-focus our hearts and intentions on Christ and serving one another! If you are visiting, or in The Rev. Dr. Christopher D. Girata need of prayer support, please fill out a communication/prayer request card located in the backs of the pews. We hope your time among us will be filled with a sense of connection, and we hope to see you again soon!
TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE AT SAINTMICHAEL.ORG/SMP

Tom Luce founded Texas 2036 to frame these challenges and look for solutions. Come hear an update on the state of our State, moderated by Diana Newton.
