Fellowship Fundraiser

The Knights of Columbus will host fellowship following the 9:30 am Mass in Saint Michael’s Church on the last Sunday of the month until Spring, 2026. Donations will be gratefully accepted. Proceeds will help defray Winter heating bills for the parish.

Lord Jesus Christ, you are the source of our hope and the fulfillment of every promise. In this Jubilee Year of Hope, renew our hearts with joy, trust, and faith in Your saving love. Help us seek and find You in all that we do. May we be faithful disciples and responsible stewards of the many gifts you have entrusted to us. May our time, talent, and treasure bear witness to our gratitude and proclaim the hope we share in you. Strengthen our families, our Parishes, and our Diocese; we humbly ask that you help unite us through this year’s Catholic Ministries Appeal so that together we may accomplish what no one of us can do alone. Grant us the spirit of true Christian Stewardship, so that in all things we may carry out Your mission with faith and joy. Bless the Church of Scranton through the remainder of this Jubilee Year and beyond, that we may shine as a people of hope. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Saint Michael Parish has a subscription to FORMED, a premier online platform filled with over 4,000 Catholic studies, movies, audio dramas, talks, e-books, and even cartoons for our children.  FORMED has content from over 60 apostolates, including Augustine Institute, Ignatius Press, and the Knights of Columbus, with material that is professionally produced, engaging, and solid in its catechism.  Best of all, this material is free to you. This subscription has been renewed through September of 2026.

Our parish uses the material on FORMED to support our ministries and provide continuing education for staff members and parishioners, as well as outreach for our sick and homebound members.  Much of FORMED’s content is available in both English and Spanish.

You can enjoy FORMED on your computer or on your television with an inexpensive Roku device or Apple TV.  You can even listen on your phone as you commute to work or do chores.
