What does it mean to be an Episcopalian?

Summer Sundays: 9:00 a.m. Parish Hall

Join us on Sundays, beginning in June, for a series on the Episcopal Church: its history, theology, polity, and worship. This will serve as preparation for those who wish to be confirmed or received into the Episcopal Church when the Bishop makes his annual visit in September, or as an inquirers class for newcomers considering making the Episcopal Church their home, or as a refresher for long time Episcopalians. Join us between the 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. Eucharists for coffee and a look at our Episcopal Church.
