Daily prayer
Daily prayer is vital for the growing Christian's daily schedule. You can pray by yourself, with your family, with friends, at home, at church, with anyone, anywhere! The important thing is that you are growing in your commitment to and practice of daily prayer.
St. Michael’s provides several opportunities for daily prayer with others. Our priests lead morning prayer at the church building at 7:15am on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Eucharist is celebrated at 7:15am on Wednesdays and Fridays (as well as Sunday mornings).
Nearby Nashotah House Theological Seminary holds Morning and Evening prayer every day (Monday through Saturday, 7:45am and 4:30pm) which is open to the public.
