Support St. Michael on Giving Tuesday!

Today is Giving Tuesday, a global day of kindness and generosity. You can celebrate Giving Tuesday in a variety of ways – by signing up for a new ministry, volunteering, praying, or by donating funds. Please consider supporting your parish, by making a gift to the Catholic Sharing Appeal. Your gift will support the vital needs of your parish, enliven ministries and programs, and expand outreach efforts across the state of West Virginia.
Go to dwc.org and select St. Michael Parish, Vienna.  Every dollar given will come directly back to the Parish exempt from Diocesan tax.  Happy Giving Tuesday.
