Thank you for your interest in St. Mary’s Episcopal Church . We are a vibrant, growing parish family that is deeply committed to one another and our life in Christ. We trust that you will find us to be a welcoming congregation when you visit – we believe that hospitality is a very important aspect of Jesus’ teaching, and St. Mary’s tries to live up to his example and expectations. We are an Episcopal Church with a servant’s heart.
We are a Christ-centered community that values all people, worship and music, learning and growth, serving others, and a commitment to stewardship. This is an example of how we share our lives together:
• The first is through worship and music. Each Sunday, St. Mary’s has two services, at 8:00 AM and 10:30 AM. During the 10:30 service, the children leave to experience their own chapel service, then rejoin their parents.
• We believe that we grow in our love and knowledge of God through Christian formation, and offer opportunities for children and adults to learn more about Jesus Christ through Bible study and other educational opportunities. There is Christian formation for adults on Sunday at 9:00 AM, as well as other studies throughout the week.
• St. Mary’s is known for its charitable work in our community. We are involved in many local outreach ministries, and we often collaborate with other established social organizations to extend our reach to those in need. This is a wonderful way to engage and get to know other members, while also doing God’s work.
At St. Mary’s, we understand that finding connection, a sense of belonging and a sense of acceptance is the first step in discerning a church home. We hope you will find St. Mary’s to be the church that is calling you to use your gifts and enter into fellowship with us.
