Why Register at a Parish
ST. MICHAEL'S CHURCH
By registering at a parish, you are declaring your desire to be part of a Catholic faith community.
If you have recently moved to the area or if you are a long-time resident, please consider registering at the parish where you participate. There’s usually information in a parish bulletin or you can call the Rectory office or a simple online form.
Top Reasons to Register at a Parish
A sense of belonging and identity in a parish community.
It is a commitment to practice your faith.
Registration enables the parish pastor and staff to get to know you better, to welcome you and to minister to you. This is especially important during a time of crisis so that the pastoral staff can attend to your spiritual needs and the needs of your family.
Registration helps you stay connected with your parish and helps your parish stay connected with you. Providing your contact information is important so that parishes provide you timely updates via email, direct mail, phone, etc. Also, if you use offertory envelopes or online giving, you will also receive a year-end statement of your donations for income tax purposes.
Once you are registered, please notify the parish office of any changes in address or phone number.
Registered active members are eligible for sponsor/godparent validation.
What about Children who are 18 Years of Age or Older? Children are considered members with their parents until they turn 18 years old. Once they are 18, it is their responsibility to join a church family, participate in the Mass and to register as a member independent of their parents. -
e-Giving
Electronic giving is an automatic transfer program which allows you
to make contributions without writing checks. It saves time. It
saves work. It simplifies your life! Currently, over 85 families in
our parish use this donation option. Weekly budget and monthly
maintenance contributions can be made automatically from your
checking account or to your credit card. National & Diocesan
collections appear during the year for your convenience. Click:

ST. MICHAEL, PROTECT US.
PRAYER TO
SAINT MICHAEL
THE ARCHANGEL
St. Michael the Archangel,
defend us in battle.
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil.
May God rebuke him, we humbly pray,
and do thou,
O Prince of the heavenly hosts,
by the power of God,
thrust into hell Satan,
and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls. Amen. -
