Official Saint Michael Naming & Usage
In written communication, the full name, Saint Michael and All Angels Episcopal Church, should be spelled out when the church is first mentioned or cited. Thereafter, references can cite “Saint Michael.”
“Saint Michael and All Angels” may be used (for example, when space is at a premium), but otherwise it is not preferred. Communicators should make efforts to explore other options before using “Saint Michael and All Angels.”
“Saint Michael” is officially branded as singular. Please refrain from listing “Saint Michael” in the plural, such as these recent examples: “Welcome to Saint Michaels…”, “Saint Michael‘s is a wonderful place…” “Serve with Saint Michaels…” etc…
The “St.” abbreviation should never be used when referring to Saint Michael or any sub-brands of Saint Michael. Example of a sub-brand: “Women of Saint Michael.”
