What to Expect
Whether it’s your first time in an Episcopal church or your first time in a while, you’re welcome here. Our service follows a traditional liturgical format, meaning prayers, Scripture readings, and hymns are central to our worship. When you arrive, you’ll receive an order of service that walks you through everything—hymns, readings, and responses—so you can follow along with ease. Each service includes readings from the Bible, a sermon, and weekly Communion.
Episcopal worship is rooted in Scripture, tradition, and reason. While it shares some elements with other historic Christian churches, it is a Protestant tradition that emphasizes grace, fellowship, and an open invitation to seek Christ.
All who have committed their life to Christ, regardless of denomination, are welcome to receive Communion.
