Newcomers

 
Newcomers Committee
The Newcomers Committee welcomes new parishioners to St. Michael.
Committee members also offer information about various ministries and encourages them to get involved. In addition, we provide general information about the parish or provide them with the appropriate phone numbers of who they can call to get more information.

We would love for you to become involved in the Newcomers Committee. It’s a great way to get to know new people! Currently we welcome 20-30 new families into the parish per month.

Members of the committee volunteer for either phone calls or to sign up new members after masses.

REGISTRATION FORM ... May be filled out and returned to the Parish Office or to a newcomer committee member available after the weekend Masses.

how you can get involved in welcoming new parishioners
Phone calls: Typically 4-5 families are called about 6 times times per year. It’s just a simple phone call welcoming them to the parish and asking if they have any questions.

Sign up new parishioners after Mass: Get your doughnut first! Leave Mass a little early to be available after Mass to personally welcome new members. Members of the committee are available with registration forms to register new members. They are then given a new member packet. Time commitment is currently 1 mass per month. For example current volunteers register for the 1st Sunday of the month the 8:30am mass. Usually by the time coffee and donuts are done we are also done. Our goal is to have enough committee members so 2 people are available after all masses. We hope to have all members register in person instead of by mail.
