Worship with us every Sunday at 9:00 am.
Join us for a Service of the Word every Sunday, and Holy Communion on the first Sunday of each month and on festival Sundays.
We are a liturgically traditional congregation, Scripturally grounded, singing hymns, using a varied but structured liturgy each week, embracing batism and Holy Communion, naming God to be Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. We intend to live our lives with a warmth toward one another, guests who might come to explore us, and our neighbors around us. God gifts faith; we aim to be faithful in response to God and the gift of faith.
