Thus, grants from The Foundation never replace or substitute for Stewardship funds, and they are not used to finance the operating budget.  Rather, Foundation grants are most often awarded to capitalize on an opportunity - to "kick off" the current capital campaign for property acquisition or to fund a guest speaker or special consultant, for example - or to resolve a particular challenge, such as clergy housing assistance or capital maintenance or improvements.  In addition, some donors request that their gifts fund a specific ministry or purpose.

All Foundation funds are invested with  professional independent money managers.  Please contact Foundation President Jim Skochdopole or any of our clergy who will work with you and your financial and legal advisors to include Saint Michael and All Angels Church as a part of your enduring legacy -- one of hope and faith for future generations.

Parishioners who have remembered Saint Michael in their wills or estate plans are members of the Foundation's new All Angels Society - now 275 members strong.
