Parish Registration

Registration is the official way we join a parish community. Many people think that because they attend a particular parish they automatically belong. At times young adults who have moved away for years think they are still signed up under their parents. But membership requires signing up, formally enrolling yourself in a parish.

Please contact the Parish Office to set up an appointment with a priest to register in the parish.  Email:  parishoffice@stmichaelsgf.com OR call (701) 772-2624

Registration is a commitment to a community, a way to be included in the religious, social and ministerial activities of your parish. Your registration affects the parish in many ways. Census numbers can determine how many priests are assigned to a church, what benefits and obligations the community has to the diocese, and how Masses, confessions and devotions are planned and scheduled.

Registration shows you belong. It is also necessary for certain benefits, like scheduling sacraments, obtaining sponsor certificates, and getting donation statements for taxes. Most importantly, it lets the parish count on you, to call on you to assist in its mission.

Registering in your parish is a statement of faith and confidence in the life and work of your parish.

The Diocese of Fargo asks that you register in only ONE parish within the diocese.  If you wish to register at St. Michael's, please notify your previous church of your intent so they can remove you from their roster.
