Worship Style

Episcopalians are conservative in holding the Bible to be the revealed Word of God but liberal in expecting a diversity of interpretations of the Word. They are conservative in worshiping God using the rites of the ancient Christians but liberal in the freedom each parish has to use those rites according to its own 'style', some preferring more formality, others less. They are conservative in retaining the leadership of bishops, but liberal in that bishops are elected by delegates from parishes of the diocese, and not appointed by some 'super bishop.'

The Episcopal Church represents a unique alternative among Christian churches. Many Christians initially raised in other Protestant churches or in the Roman Catholic or Eastern Orthodox churches have chosen, later in life, to make the Episcopal Church their church home.

We gather as a parish of The Episcopal Church to honor God in worship according to the Book of Common Prayer.

The church follows Rite II at both 8:00 A.M. and 10:00 A.M. services, except during Lent at which time we follow Rite I.

The Rector will bring reserved sacrament to anyone either in the hospital or in the home, if requested. In addition, communion will be brought to the homebound during Easter and Christmas if requested.
