Bulletin for week beginning November 2, 2008. WELCOME
TO ST. MICHAEL!
We extend a warm welcome in Jesus’ name to all who are worshipping with us
today, especially those who are here for the first time. Thank you for coming
and we hope you find your time spent with us to be friendly and spiritually
uplifting. We’d like to have a record of everyone’s attendance at our
services so please register in the white attendance books at the end of each pew
or sign our guest book on the NOTE
TO FAMILIES:
Here at St. Michael we value our families in worship. One of the joys we have is
to gather together to receive the words of forgiveness in Jesus and His
sacraments. This is one of the few activities young children, their parents, and
the elderly can do together. We want to create an environment so that all can
worship together. Should your child become distracting, we have set up chairs in
the narthex at the back of the church so you may continue with worship. We
encourage and desire all families to come together for worship since we are all
part of the body of Christ. HOLY
