EPISCOPAL CHURCH WOMEN (ECW )

At the core of our parish is a group of women dedicated to serving God through fellowship and mission. ECW officially stands for Episcopal Church Women, but also means Everyone Caring and Working. As a member of St. Michael’s, every woman is automatically a member of the ECW. We encourage women to participate in ECW by attending a General Membership Meeting, helping with one of the many church or community activities ECW sponsors, or by joining an ECW chapter.

Friends

Friends prepare food and serve at receptions in our Parish Hall for those who have passed away. Friends is divided into teams which rotate through the year. If your loved one has died, contact Robin Kennedy, our Parish Care Coordinator. She will inform a member of our clergy, who will meet with you to discuss arrangements and make contact with Friends, should you and your family request a reception.

If you’d like to volunteer for Friends, contact Linda Berry or Pat Thacker
