The Food Pantry at St. Michael’s
The Pantry at St. Michael’s has suspended its Saturday morning distribution during the pandemic. We have joined forces with the town of Litchfield and CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) to feed families and individuals in need in a way that limits social contact. The contents of our cupboards have been donated to the town in support of these efforts, and we are asking our volunteers to offer their free time to the town’s distribution efforts if they are able. Anyone interested in volunteering for the town can contact Ann Combs, First Selectman’s office at 860-567-7550 for details and instruction on further requirements. We continue to search for ways to ensure that all who need food can be supplied.
Food donations to the Pantry at St. Michael’s are still welcome and may be left in the back of the church or in the front entrance hall of the church community house. They will be used as needed. It is our goal and our expectation to open again in the months to come. We will keep you updated. Thank you for your continued support.

Communion
at St. Michael’s
Anyone baptized in any Christian tradition is welcome and encouraged to receive communion. If for any reason you do not want to receive communion, please come up to the altar and cross your arms over your chest, and we will know to say a blessing over you. We want everyone to feel fully part of God’s family.
