Saturday – 5:00 p.m.
Saturday Holy Eucharist – This simple service uses a standard Rite II liturgy but has no hymns or service music like on Sunday morning. If you like a quieter shorter service this may be for you.
Sunday - 8:00 a.m.
Sunday Holy Eucharist - If you crave a certain simplicity — and if you can forgo music — this service is right for you. Quiet and smaller than services later in the morning, we would venture that every Episcopal Church in the country begins Sunday morning with a service like this. The Rite I form of the liturgy is used.
Sunday - 10:00 a.m.
Sunday Holy Eucharist – This is our most formal service, but you can still expect surprises.
This service uses Rite II and includes music generally led by the
choir. There is a full sermon, and healing is offered. Nursery care is available
for children 4 and under. Church School is
offered September – May. Throughout the
summer Chapel in the Garden replaces Church
School.
Nursery - Our newly renovated nursery is open
throughout the 10
o'clock
service, and is intended for children 4 years
old and younger.
The
nursery is staffed by 2 trained adults and
features a paging
system,
that allows the nursery staff to privately contact
parents.
Church School - A weekly program designed to
help children
experience the scriptures and learn about God's
love. Children gather
for
singing and prayer before going to age specific
classes.
Chapel in the Garden – Throughout the summer young people gather
in the Commons before the 10 o’clock service. From there they
process
into the garden for a simple service of music, prayers, readings and
sharing. The children rejoin the service at the Peace.
Wednesday - 12:15 p.m.
Wednesday – This brief mid-day service uses
Rite II and includes the laying on of hands for
healing. A brief sermon, usually drawing from
Lesser Feasts and Fasts is offered. There is no
music at this service.
Tuesday – Friday - 7:30 a.m. Morning Prayer
Morning prayer is the steady drumbeat of the church’s prayer life. Reaching back to antiquity, the practice of daily reading of psalms, scripture, canticles and prayers was borrowed by early Christians from Jewish worship. In addition to the prescribed psalms, canticles and lessons, officiants read the prayers requested by members of the congregation, keeping faith with our responsibility to be a true community.
