What should I wear?
During the Sunday morning services, dress tends towards business or business-casual attire, with many men wearing jackets with or without a tie. The afternoon service, at 5 p.m. is casual. Whatever your preference, we hope to see you on a Sunday and welcome you in whatever you choose to wear!
Where should I sit?
Please sit wherever you are comfortable. The ushers are happy to help you with any special needs or seating requirements you may have, including wheelchairs and devices for the hearing impaired.
What can I expect?
We understand that some prefer to remain inconspicuous when they visit a church for the first time, and we will not ask you to stand or otherwise make yourself known. We do hope you’ll introduce yourself to one of the clergy in the receiving line after the service, and we truly hope that you feel welcome! There are visitor cards in each of the pews – if you complete one of those, someone will be in touch with you very soon after. We hope to see you!
Is there a nursery?
Yes. Please click here to view information about care and enrichment for our children during services.
How long are the services?
Typically, Sunday worship takes about an hour for the 7:30 a.m. service in the chapel, as well as the 8:45 and 10 a.m. services in the church. Our 5 p.m. contemporary service, The River, is in the church and lasts about 45 minutes.
What if I am not an Episcopalian?
That’s ok! All are welcome and encouraged to participate. You can follow the service in the service leaflet, which usually contains everything you need. Or if you prefer, you can also use the Book of Common Prayer (BCP), which is located in our pews.
May I receive Communion?
All baptized Christians—no matter age or denomination—are welcome to participate in Holy Communion. Visitors who are not baptized Christians are welcome to come forward during the Communion to receive a blessing. We offer gluten free wafers as needed.
