This building is being converted into a Chapel which will be used for funerals in inclement weather. Your donations to the annual Cemetery Fund Collection have helped to make these renovations possible. PARISH NURSE PROGRAM Parish nurses are persons of faith who are experienced registered nurses. Here at St. Michael’s we had a parish nurse program but over time it ended when the parish nurse coordinator moved away. We are now reigniting the Valley Parish Nurse Program here at St. Michael’s as is St. Mary’s across town. Having a qualified, registered nurse on the parish staff can enhance the Church’s efforts to integrate Whole Person Health into its parishioners. The parish nurse can assist those in need of healing and convey the parish’s concerns for its parishioners. Look for our upcoming “meet and greet the parish nurse” get-together. Our Nurse Coordinator is Sue Goncalves, DNP, MS, RN-BC. Any nurse who would like to be part of our parish nurse program should call the office and leave your name. You will be called back by Mrs. Goncalves.
