Our services are rooted in historic Anglican liturgy which comes from the Book of Common Prayer. We reenact the story of the gospel through prayer, scripture, and sacrament. Our 8 am service is a “said” communion and is done without any music. Our 10:30 am service draws from the riches of historic church music and incorporates band, organ, and choir on most Sundays. Sermons are about 20 minutes long and are based on the Scriptures and point to Jesus.
We are a family! We seek to create an environment that is welcoming, safe, and fun for your kids. During the 10:30 am service, we offer both nursery care and kids classes. Newborns through 3 years old may stay in nursery care from the beginning of the service until Communion or through the end of the service. Kids 4K – 5th grade exit the main service with their adult leaders before the sermon for their own formation classes. They return with leaders to their household before Communion.
The second half of our worship is centered around the celebration of Holy Communion. Each week, all baptized Christians are welcome to receive God’s gifts of bread and wine at the table. Those exploring Christianity are welcome in our services and are invited to come forward at Communion and cross their arms over their chest to receive a blessing from one of our clergy.
Come as you are. Some people dress up, others keep it casual. Our clergy who lead worship that day will wear vestments, which are traditional robes.
