Jim Robertson’s first eucharist
A priest’s ministry is centered in and lives out of the celebration of the Eucharist. It is what grounds a priest’s soul, directs their ministry, and is the means through which they gather people into community and into Christ. Jim’s first celebration of the Holy Eucharist will be with us, his home parish, on June 16th. There will be special prayers offered. Also, Jim will be available to offer blessings to anyone, as it is a very special thing to…

Vestry Meeting
At each Vestry meeting, one of our vestry members reflects upon and leads us in a spiritual practice in The Way of Love. This begins our meeting grounded in God and forms us deeper as a community. Our meetings always include approval of minutes, review of our financial position, and then will focus on one particular ministry, so we can learn about it in depth. We come together in desire to form the people of our parish faithfully through our…

A Warm Welcome: Coffee Hour
We love it when the community gathers to just be together: to catch up on the past week, to share our joys and concerns, to grow together in Christ and to feel what it means to be a part of the living and moving Body of Christ. Each week parishioners provide delicious and healthy foods to share. Please always feel welcome to come and be a part of our community.

Quilting Ministry
Each week people gather to create a quilt which is raffled off at the end of the year to raise money for the residents of The Episcopal Home. The members of this ministry also make other creative projects they sell at their annual Pumpkin Patch. No quilting experience needed, just an enjoyment of the company of others!

Morning Prayer
Join us for a time of reading scripture, praying, and silence as we usher in the new day, turning our hearts toward God.

Morning Prayer
The backbone of worship in the Episcopal Church is the Daily Office, a collection of prayers offered throughout the day, beginning with Morning Prayer, a quiet, sacred service that can be done individually (for there is always someone else praying with you) or together in a group. Please join us for time of reading scripture and offering prayers.

Healing Service at The Episcopal Home
We gather mid-week to receive healing prayers and to celebrate the Holy Eucharist together. This is a lovely time of reading scripture, asking for God’s healing grace to be within our own heart, mind, body, and soul or for those who are on our heart. There’s an intimacy of communion when the group gathered is small and knows each other well. All are welcome to attend. It’s a wonderful way to intentionally connect with God’s grace part way through the…

Wednesday evening Spiritual formation group gathering
We gather together to enjoy spiritual companionship, to create a safe space to seek and explore, to learn together, to share our thoughts and questions, and to live out our baptismal vows of “continuing in the apostles’ teaching and fellowship, in the breaking of the bread, and in the prayers”. We are being faithful members who want to know more about God and to know God more deeply. We meet every other Wednesday at Mother Barbara’s home. Topics vary from learning about…

Spirituality of Eucharist
The Episcopal Church understands the centrality of the Holy Eucharist in our Christian lives. We celebrate this sacrament of praise and thanksgiving each week, coming forward each time expecting to be transformed by the love and grace of Christ. In addition to understanding the history and tradition of the various parts of the Eucharistic service, it is helpful to explore the spirituality of entering fully into the service. This can involve exploring how our heart and soul is touched by…

worship committee meeting
This is an opportunity for those who lead worship to come together and plan, reflect, and imagine. This is a time for people to share their own experiences of worship and to work always to create meaningful and moving worship experiences for all parishioners, ranging from the quiet spoken service at 8 a.m. to the festive youth-filled service at 10 a.m., the Holy Week services which walk us through the last week of Jesus’ life, to the quarterly Contemplative Eucharists…
