Welcome to St. Michael's
Episcopal Church
Worship with Us
Fall is here! We're loving the colors that fall brings, as well as the special services and events of St. Michael's.
The continuing reality of Coronavirus means that many of our usual services and events will be modified. Our All Souls' Day Requiem Mass will be an online service of prayer and music remember those who have died, especially needed this year in light of over 200,000 people in our country and over one million across the globe who have died because of the Coronavirus pandemic. Boo Bash is scaled down to Trunk or Treat with extra precautions (everyone must wear a mask over their nose and mouth at all times and honor 8 to 10 feet between households). Our Annual Diocesan Convention will be via Zoom on Saturday, October 24th.
Yet we are still together, still praying, still welcoming, and still joyful even in this time. We are regularly worshipping online. Each Sunday morning, the video service of Morning Prayer is available by 10:00 am. The printed service bulletin is emailed out on Fridays and is also available under the Worship in Time of Coronavirus tab on our website. The video for Morning Prayer, as well as our past services, is available online at our YouTube channel, which you can subscribe to here. Sunday's service will also go live on our Facebook page by 10:00 am. The video will be available for viewing anytime afterwards.
We continue our ministry of love in action at St. Michael's, as well. We are supporting God's Pantry, feeding those who are hungry in our community, especially students. We are studying together - our Zoom groups gather weekly. Several of our small groups are gathering in-person in our Garden - wearing masks and physical distancing for all in-person gatherings. If you are interested in participating in our ongoing ministries during this time, please subscribe to our online newsletter.
Our church building is also open for private prayer Mondays through Fridays for those who would like to come sit in holy space and pray. We ask all who do to wear a mask and honor physical distancing while in the church building. The building may be closed to communal worship, but the Church is open - it is in each home, each person who believes hope, life, and love win, and each sacrifice we all make to ensure the health and safety of our neighbors. We as the people of St. Michael's continue to be the church as we stay healthy at home until we gather again. Stop by Mondays through Fridays 10:00 am until 2:00 pm, when the Church Office is open.

About Us
St. Michael’s was built on the “holy hill” of southeast Lexington in 1955. Today we worship and serve in a thriving neighborhood that includes the Arboretum, Trader Joe’s, Landsdowne Center and the venerable Lexington restaurant, Ramsey’s.
While location, location, location is important in real estate, we know people are always more important, especially when it comes to church. Our congregants range from founding members to Lexington newcomers; life-long Episcopalians and people new to Christianity; singles, married, and partnered; babies and active seniors. Together, we gather to worship, laugh, grieve, pray, celebrate, and serve both God and neighbor.
You'll find out a lot about us by exploring this website and even more by joining us on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.
You can keep up with what's happening at St. Michael's by subscribing to our weekly e-newsletter.
