Staff Departure: Monica Awbrey | Saint Michael and All Angels

STAFF DEPARTURE: MONICA AWBREY

Since 2019, Monica Awbrey, our Assistant Choirmaster, has made a tremendous impact at Saint Michael. As the founding director of the Cherub Choir, our choir for children Pre-K through 2nd grade, she has played a key role in our engagement of young people in the life of our church. Before Covid, there were some 40 children in the Cherub Choir! Monica’s skills as a choir director extend to all ages and abilities, as we’ve seen on the many occasions she’s conducted the adult choir and our older choristers. Further, she, along with our Associate Director of Music Meg Harper, is one of the two founding co-managers of our week-long residential RSCM Dallas Boys Course launching in June – a huge task few in the United States have ever taken!

Monica has discerned she needs to step away from her role at Saint Michael this summer in order to devote more time to her family, particularly since her oldest child will go to college in the fall. I’m sorry to see her go, and am deeply grateful for all she has done at SMAA. She has made a wonderful and lasting impact on our Saint Michael community. Monica’s last Sunday is June 26. I hope you will join us then to celebrate and thank Monica!

If you are new to Saint Michael, curious about the path to membership, or simply want to learn more about life at our parish community, we invite you to join us for two different class events we have throughout the year: "Saint Michael 101" is an introduction to life here at SMAA, and "Episcopal Christians", where we explore what it means to walk as a Christian in the Episcopal tradition, discussing topics like our Anglican heritage, worship, the Bible and formation etc.

The Foundation of Saint Michael and All Angels is essential to the vitality, growth, stability and success of our parish. Its grants support the mission of the Parish, consistent with priorities established by the Vestry and the Rector.

As God’s stewards, we build on the foundation left by those who came before us. We, in turn, have the opportunity, with a bequest to Saint Michael, to sustain and enhance our parish ministries and programs for the benefit of future generations.
