STEP INTO THE NEW YEAR

Beginning the weekend of January 11/12 we will start a month-long tennis shoe collection for young people in need in our area.  Canfield High School National Honors Society members Lauren Smallwood and Jenna Wilkeson will oversee this collection, including the organizing of the shoes and assisting with the distribution to various charities in our area. We are asking for BRAND NEW tennis shoes, youth through adult sizes.  They can be placed in the large black bins by the entrances. See flyer HERE. Again, thank you for your generosity to all our projects and collections here in our parish.

TEMPORARY ASSIGNMENT FOR FATHER LAVELLE

Bishop Bonnar has asked that I assume the temporary role of Administrator of the newly merged Saint Pope John XXIII Parish in Niles (the former Our Lady of Mount Carmel and Saint Stephen Parishes).  This is in addition to my responsibilities as Pastor of Saint Michael Parish, Canfield; Vicar for Missionary Discipleship; Diocesan Director of the Office of Development and Stewardship; and Diocesan Director of the Office of Communications.  Father Bala Marneni will assist in the sacramental ministry of the parish while I will attend to the administration of the parish, along with an occasional weekend (possibly monthly).  Thank you for your understanding during this time.  It should be no great disruption to our schedule or activities here at Saint Michael​​.​

OPEN GYM FOR WALKING

The Family Life Center Gymnasium is now open four days a week: Monday through Thursday, from 9:30am to 11:30am.  Parishioners are invited to come and walk for healthy exercise and companionship. Walkers are requested to stop in the open meeting room across from the restrooms to store their coats and change from outdoor boots and shoes to indoor athletic or walking shoes—required to protect the FLC floor. Now there is no need to go to the mall to exercise.  This is a great opportunity right here at home to walk your way to a healthy lifestyle. Please enter through the side door.
