About St. Michael’s Episcopal Church
A Vibrant Episcopal Church in the Westlake Hills of Austin, Texas
St. Michael’s Episcopal Church is a welcoming community grounded in the grace of God in Jesus Christ. Through worship, teaching, and shared life, we grow in faith and connection.
We love Jesus, liturgy, and community, formed by common prayer, gathered by grace, and sent into the world in love.
Our Mission
Our Mission is to grow.
We seek to grow in community, welcoming all who come through our doors and caring for one another as the Body of Christ.
We seek to grow in spiritual depth, learning what it means to live as disciples of Jesus Christ.
We seek to grow in service, discerning how God is calling us to love our neighbors and serve the world.
We seek to grow in witness, deepening our knowledge of Christ and making Christ known.
We seek to grow in generosity, offering our time, attention, and resources to make a thoughtful and faithful difference in the Austin community and beyond.
Our Life Together
We believe that personal transformation and spiritual growth are essential to our shared life of faith. Through worship, formation, service, and community, the Holy Spirit continually renews our hearts and forms us more fully into the likeness of Jesus Christ.
As we grow, we are shaped into people marked by love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. From this grounding, we are sent into the world to offer grace, connection, and hope.
Looking Ahead
St. Michael’s is growing—and we believe God is calling us to grow with intention.
As we look toward the future, we are investing in the people, spaces, and ministries that will help St. Michael’s flourish for generations to come. Through our Grace to Grow initiative, we are expanding and renewing our campus to create more welcoming and flexible spaces for children, families, formation, fellowship, and service. We are also discerning how our sanctuary can continue to support beautiful, reverent, and vibrant worship for years to come.
But our vision for growth is about much more than buildings.
We are strengthening opportunities for people of every age to grow in faith, building deeper relationships through small groups and shared life, expanding our ministries with children and families, and finding new ways to serve our neighbors throughout Austin and beyond.
Through it all, our hope is simple: to become an increasingly vibrant community of people who are being formed by the grace of Jesus Christ and sent into the world to share that grace with others.
There is much ahead for St. Michael’s, and we would love for you to be part of it.
