ALPHA has just started at St. Michael’s Church Hall!
Through videos, talks, and conversations, we discuss the big questions of life and learn about Jesus while building relationships and community with others. It is FREE and a great way to meet other people living in our neighbourhoods.
COME & LEARN
What is ALPHA? Through videos and talks we discuss the big questions of life and learn about Jesus while building relationships and community with others. ALPHA doesn’t just happen – it takes time and effort of many people in different roles. We need you! IF you’ve experienced ALPHA and want others to experience its power, consider joining the ALPHA TEAM. For info contact Carmel Van Brussel at carmelvb@vaxxine.com and JOIN our ALPHA Team!

PERSONAL CARE PRODUCTS continue to be in need. This month – we need dish soap. If you are able to make a donation of dish soap – thank you! We will collect dish soap until April 29th. THANK YOU !
Last month we served 130 households with personal care and hygiene products helped by your donations.
We are seeing an increase in people attending our meal program- currently we are serving over 200 hot nutritious meals per week out of St. Michael’s Hall space. The need is great. PLeaSE donate to help us sustain our food outreach initiatives.
Attached, find the Diocese of St. Catharine’s Synod 2021-23 Consultation Summary Report. We encourage you to read it prayerfully, and share it widely; the Reporting subcommittee hopes that you hear your own voice echoed within its pages.
The Diocesan Planning Committee wishes to extend its appreciation and thanks to the Synod listening session facilitators, to pastors and parish staff, and everyone who participated, whether in person or through the online survey. The tasks of reviewing the survey data and comments, reading the session notes, and then synthesizing and coding the qualitative data into this report was both challenging and humbling.
The synodal path that we have stepped onto is alive with hope! This experience of listening, of discussing, of taking time with the Holy Spirit must see its completion with pastoral planning and action that respond to the tensions and themes the report has identified.
Serving You...
In these times when you may feel afraid, unsure, alone and bewildered, we are thinking of you. The Parish has put together some ways you can reach out to us online for help, prayer and spiritual guidance or if you would like to offer help.
Remember, we are never alone with Jesus in our presence. There are a number of ways we, the congregation, can serve you and help you find comfort while still abiding by the social distancing practices. Please contact us today and may we all remain safe.

CONNECT GROUP INVITATION
St. Michael’s invites and encourages everyone, especially those who have participated in an ALPHA, to join a Connect Group. This is a regular gathering (online at this time due to COVID-19) led by parishioners and supported by the parish. It’s a place where all are welcome, will be known, loved and nurtured. In small groups people connect, pray and grow in faith together.
