Update 1/9/19—Our building project continues to move forward. A lot of steps are involved as we move forward.
The lower level walls have been poured and are stand-ing! Now we weatherproof them before backfilling the area.
We are waiting for Pre-construction approval regard-ing our fire suppression for the new building space. Once that is approved, it will be installed and then the lower floor slab can be poured.
An accessible ramp has been installed at the back door in the upper lot for full access to the church when the front doors are no longer available in the next couple of weeks.
Thank you for your continued prayers and support of this project. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work around the construction project and modify our routines to accommodate everyone.

“When you are in a difficult situation and everything seems to be against you, to the point where you feel like you can’t handle one more minute, don’t give up, because that is the precise place and time in which the tide will change. “ - Harriet Beecher Stowe
The beginning of a year is a wonderful time for a tide to change. Are you ready to lay that burden down? The one that you have carried inside since the day of the abortion decision? Make the decision to start this New Year by handing God that burden and letting Him set you free.
Call for a compassionate, confidential conversation. Registering now for our next healing retreats: March 8-10 & April 5-7, both in English.

St. Michael Parish & School has been blessed with donations of office furniture. This means we have some items to pass along to others. If you could use a sturdy desk, please see what is availa-ble in the Large Hall. Only the desks and tables that are marked are available. First come, first serve. We need the desks moved as soon as possible. Please let the office know if you need help moving them.
Today we celebrate the baptism of Christ in the Jordan. This is the second epiphany, or manifestation, of the Lord. The past, the present, and the future are made manifest in this epiphany. The most holy one placed Himself among us, the unclean and sinners. The Son of God freely hum-bled Himself at the hand of the Baptist. By His baptism in the Jordan, Christ man-ifests His humility and dedicates Himself to the redemption of man. He takes up-on Himself the sins of the whole world and buries them in the waters of the Jor-dan. — The Light of the World by Benedict Baur, O.S.B.
