We are part of The Episcopal Church, in communion with the Anglican church. This worldwide communion of believers uses the Book of Common Prayer as the base of our services. You could go to any Anglican church in the world and feel at home.
We have an intentional culture focused on welcoming
people to worship, learn, share, and serve

A gentle, safe place for babies to be while parents worship
Christian Formation begins in the cradle. Parents volunteer their time, and alternate weeks shepherding our littlest ones. The nursery is open Sunday mornings, and for all weekday/night services. For updated COVID safety measures, please see our Nursery Standards and Practices '21-'22.
Children (Ages 4-10)
At this age, children learn best by doing. We explore the great stories of the Bible through Godly Play, a Montessori-based program. We learn through storytelling, and respond through music and artistic creations. Each Sunday we are discovering how our awesome God wants to use our talents. -
