The more profound things are, the simpler they seem to be. The essence of the Gospel and this season coalesces in today’s focus on God’s love for us and the command-ment to love one another. This may seem far too sim-ple; but the reality is amazing and a little terrifying. If we are honest, we know both the impact and the cost of this kind of love from our personal experience. Acts 10:25-26, 34-35, 44-48 God’s presence is available to all. Ps 98 The Lord has revealed to the nations his saving power. 1 Jn 4:7-10 God is made known to us through love. Jn 15:9-17 “This I command you: love one another.”

SHARING GOD’S BLESSINGS ANNUAL APPEAL Thanks to all our parishioners who have made their gift to the 2018 Sharing God’s Blessings Annual Appeal. St. Michael’s is 59% towards our goal of $48,395. If you have not yet made a gift or pledge, please fill out a commitment card located in the Church. Please help support the many programs and ministries that as-sist so many in our community. Our parish also benefits by receiving a rebate from the appeal if it exceeds its goal. If we exceed the goal, we will use the re-bate towards the new air-conditioning system.

ST. MICHAEL’S ANNUAL MAY CROWNING WEDNESDAY EVENING, MAY 16TH, 7:00 PM The month of May is especially dedicated to the Blessed Mother, and here at St. Michael’s we honor her in song and prayer at our May Crowning. Our new first communicants will be present and are asked to wear their Communion apparel. The first communi-cants planning to attend should be in the Lower Church at 6:30 PM to prepare pro-cession. Parents attending may bring flowers for “Mary’s Garden” if they wish, and place then in the urns in front of the altar. Each child will receive a flower as they process into the Church. This is a very special way to celebrate God’s gift to us with the children. Fr. Miles will be with us for the celebration.

The ELVIS IMPERSONATOR SHOW FUND RAISER was a huge success! Everybody had a great time dancing to Elvis Presley’s music. Thank you to all who organized and helped out to make this fund raiser a suc-cess. 139 tickets were sold yielding $2,665 in profit.
