Our communal gathering, centered in common prayer, makes space to lift up church teaching and theological tradition. We read from Scripture, hear a sermon, and say the Nicene Creed.
A choral anthem will be offered this Sunday, August 20 at the 10am service. A summer pickup choir will sing Stephen Paulus’s simple but effective setting of Lift up our hearts, O King of Kings, with Brian Fairbanks on flute.

Don’t miss the special treat of a mini organ demo and organ building workshop this Sunday following the 10am service in the sanctuary.
We will celebrate and honor Recovery Sunday on August 6. The service that day will incorporate references to the tenets of Recovery and will be followed by a forum in the Nativity Hall. Guest presenters from the fellowships of OA, Al-Anon, CA and AA have graciously agreed to participate in this forum.
When I found The Episcopal Church, my immediate impression was quite the opposite to prior experiences of church. I found a well-structured order of worship together, which initially seemed to minimize individual preferences; and throughout the community there was a generous freedom in terms of individual thought and expression of self.
Tenor Palmer Haffner reprises his 2023 Broadway Night solo “Beautiful City” from the musical Godspell during Sunday’s 10am service. Particularly poignant for Recovery Sunday, the song asks “Out of the ruins and rubble, out of the smoke, out of our night of struggle, can we see a ray of hope?”
