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!

Community Meal
This is an opportunity for us to reach out into the community and be the hands and feet of Christ to serve a meal to our friends and guests from the community. We serve a home-cooked warm meal twice a month as part of the ecumenical church group program to feed the hungry in our neighborhoods. We feed them in heart and body through our loving care and delicious meals.

Please join us for time of reading scripture and offering prayers.

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…

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…
