The service at St. Matthew’s on September 29, 2024, was centered around the feast of St. Michael and all angels, celebrating both visible and invisible acts of kindness within the community. After a warm welcome and announcements, including the recognition of newlyweds Shana and Harold, the service featured hymns, readings from Numbers and James, a gospel reflection, and a sermon about angels in daily life. Prayers for global peace, especially for Ukraine and the Holy Land, were followed by a pastoral prayer and a collection for the church’s charitable works. The service concluded with communion, a presentation to the newlyweds, and a final hymn, sending the congregation off with a message of hope and peace.
