St. Michael parish is twinned with St. Jean-Baptiste parish in Dos-Palais, Haiti, as part of the Diocese of Richmond's twenty year old Haiti Twinning Ministry. The primary purpose of the Haiti Twinning Ministry is to develop relationships that will benefit the people in both parishes.

Fr. Elizier Dorescat, pastor in Dos-Palais, has visited St. Michael several times; groups of Michaelonians have visited Dos-Palais and experienced the warm hospitality of his parishioners. The Sponsorship Program, in which Michaelonians sponsor individual children in the St. Jean-Baptiste school, builds very personal relationships. A rectory, a new school and a portable water system (all built due to the generosity of Michaelonians) are tangible signs to the people of Dos-Palais that a community of people they have never met cares about them - which gives them hope.

Economic Development in Dos-Palais.
