Wow-  It is summer.  Last time I communicated was February.  I was heralding cold weather.  Now, we herald warm, hot, weather.  June visits us with 90 degree temperatures everyday.  Spring was kind, gentle and beautiful. Oh yes, the oil spill lingers off the Mississippi Coast.  It has not smeared our beaches or wetlands, yet.  And, we are in hurricane season.  Fragile, Vulnerable, Balance and Harmony, we plead and cry out to God!  

The reconstruction and renovation of St. Michael Church is seeing the light at the end of the tunnell.  The floors are being laid right now and the  terrazzo is finished.  The pews will follow along with the acoustics to temper our echo chamber, finally the organ and other finishing touches.  Yes, there are unexpected delays!  Do keep praying for our perseverance and patience. 

Please go to the rest of our website where you can see our financial needs. Please donate.  Due to the oil spill our visitors have decreased along with our collections.  We need a million dollars to pay off bills for the church.  We are looking to plan ahead for our Family Life Cener and Rectory. 

God Bless you for your past support through prayer and financial donations. 

Peace, Patience and Perseverance, 

Fr. Greg, Pastor 

P.S.  We had a profound and beautiful Blessing of the Fleet, Shrimp Festival and Coronation of our Shrimp Queen.  It was positive, prayerfuland hope-filled.
