Who We Are
Founded in 1786, with the current sanctuary dating from 1875, St. Michael's enjoys a long history of presence in and service to the community. With a total membership of over 320 and active Sunday worship attendance of over 100, we are engaged in a significant set of ministries to the community and the world around us.
Our Community
Naugatuck was incorporated in 1844, and operates today under a Borough form of government. It is a demographically and economically diverse community of nearly 31, 500 residents. A former manufacturing hub, many of the historically based businesses have left the city, leaving a primarily service based economy. Naugatuck is also known as the "Most Patriotic Town in CT" and holds a longstanding tradition of honoring our veterans and fallen soldiers.
We are located on the Metro North line and within easy driving distance to the region's mountains, beaches, and larger cities. There is an abundance of recreational and cultural opportunities for all tastes within easy reach.
