St. Michael and All Angels

About this church

St. Michael and All Angels is an Episcopal congregation at 81 Burke Drive in Buffalo. Its worship guide explains a service grounded in Scripture, the Book of Common Prayer, Baptism, and the Eucharist, with readings ordinarily drawn from the Old Testament, a Psalm, an Epistle, and a Gospel. The current homepage directs Sunday viewers to a 10:00 a.m. YouTube simulcast from its regional-ministry partner, St. Paul’s in Williamsville. Because the posted online arrangement may not describe every in-person gathering at St. Michael’s, first-time visitors should confirm the local schedule before traveling.

The congregation’s story began with the Walden Avenue Mission in 1891. Its predecessor became St. Stephen’s, and the present Burke Drive building was dedicated in 1949 as New St. James’; the church’s historical account connects today’s parish with those earlier communities. Outreach funds support a notably local network that includes Buffalo Public School 82, FeedMore WNY, Friends of Night People, St. Aloysius’ Food Pantry, and St. Luke’s Mission of Mercy, alongside other agencies serving children, older adults, families, and people facing hunger or homelessness. Recent worship bulletins and sermons are available online for a practical preview of the parish’s liturgy and teaching.
