Dear Five O' Clock Friends,
When I first began talking with the leadership of St. Michael and All Angels Church about the possibility of serving as their rector, one of the things that especially caught my eye was the "Live at Five" service. I was thrilled to know that there was alternative worship that was bi-lingual, oriented to the local culture, innovative, and with a closely knit group of participants.
During the interim period, I realize that there was some variation in the Live at Five worship, due in part to the lack of a full-time rector. Well, now that I am here, I would like to commit the parish to providing a priest-and therefore the Holy Eucharist-on every Sunday at 5:00 pm, and to building and encouraging the Live at Five congregation and community. This Sunday, August 30, we are inviting everyone who has been a part of this Sunday afternoon congregation to join us in a "Reunidos" as we begin this new chapter together.
Yours in Christ,
Fr. Joe
