Also, Sherry in the area of religious education. . .very loving and understanding with our families trying to get their kids registered for the sacraments. Mary Gaines is also an invaluable member of the St. Michaels Staff. Gracias to all the clergy n lay people behind the scenes as well. I'm very proud to say I worship at St. Michael The Archangel...
