Its membership is all the women of the parish.  Through its mission it supports lay ministry in its service to both the parish and the broader church. Monthly meetings are held on the first Sunday of the month October through June from 1 – 2 pm.  Annual activities include the Valentine and Christmas Bake Sales and Mini Bazaars, the Palm Sunday Hot Cross Bun Sale, the Lenten Quiet at the House of the Redeemer, and guest speaker meetings to which all parishioners and friends are invited. ECW as well sponsors the bi-annual United Thank Offering Ingathering (UTO) parish collections.

On the diocesan level, two members of St. Michael’s serve on the ECW Diocese of New York Board. Throughout the year parish members participate in s number of diocesan ECW events: the School of Worship in March; the Annual Meeting and Spring Ingathering in May; the Annual Stony Point Conference in October; and the Spring UTO Ingathering in November.

Funds raised by the parish ECW annual food and bazaar sales are shared with the parish, and Episcopal Church organizations and groups at the diocesan, national, and international levels.
