What to Expect When You Visit
We have resumed in-person worship. The services are held at 8 & 10 am. It is a shortened version of Holy Communion. Masks are required for everyone attending this service. There are 19 pews available at each service. One household per pew.
The service begins with some short prayers and then moves to the Gospel reading and sermon. Following the sermon is the Creed, prayers of the people and the communion prayer.
Communion is only the wafer at this time and is distributed using tongs. You are asked to return to your pew before consuming your wafer.
The service lasts about ½ hour.
Our Digital Worship is at 10 am on our Facebook page. It is a Morning Prayer service. Morning Prayer is a service of the Episcopal Church that is based on Scripture. The service starts with a confession of sin. It then moves to two psalms that you can join in reciting. Those are followed by a reading from the Gospel and a brief sermon. After the sermon there is a Canticle (which is a portion of scripture said together), the Apostles’ Creed and prayers, including the Lord’s Prayer. The service lasts around 20-25 minutes.
