Join us on Friday, December 6th, at St. Michael’s for our monthly event of eucharistic prayer and fellowship!

A Holy Hour is a time of prayer in front of the Eucharist, also known as Eucharistic Adoration. It is a way to worship our Lord Jesus and experience His peace and love.

Following the Holy Hour, we invite you to join us for a social gathering in the Parish Hall, including snacks and drinks. This monthly event is a great way to retreat with the Lord and gather with the community. It is also a wonderful opportunity to meet new friends, and newcomers are strongly encouraged to join!

What if I’m not Catholic?
We welcome you! ARK is a community open to Christians of all denominations, as well as non-Christians who are curious about the faith. If you are not yet Catholic or Christian, we encourage you to explore Christianity through our Alpha Program or our Theological Academy lectures. For those seriously considering becoming Catholic, OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation for Adults) is a great next step.

ARK (Activities for Recreation and Koinonia) is dedicated to fostering community among St. Michael's parishioners and newcomers aged 22-35, but college students are welcomed for this event! This event is a wonderful opportunity for fellowship, spiritual growth, and to strengthen your connection with others in the faith. Whether you're single or married, if you’re looking to deepen your faith and make new friends, we’d love to see you there!

Details:

• When: Friday, December 6th @ 7 p.m.

• Where: St. Michael's Church

• Who: Open to all young adults, ages 22-35 (though college students are welcome!)
