St. Michael’s continues to ring our bell every evening for 5 minutes from 6:00 – 6:05 p.m. We join with Grace Community Church, Old North, and other churches in the area to acknowledge our interconnection in this time of self-isolation, and support for one another, especially healthcare and other essential workers. Different parishioners have volunteered to ring each evening.
