Eastertide
Risen Christ, fill our hearts with the light of your resurrection. As you have rolled away the stone, roll back our fear and weariness, that we may walk in hope, rejoice in your presence, and share your life‑giving love with the world. Amen.

SUNDAY SERVICES
A Spoken Service Rooted in Sacred Tradition
Step into a sanctuary of timeless grace. This spoken liturgy from the Book of Common Prayer allows the beauty of the words drawn from Elizabethan English to resonate—clear, contemplative, and deeply moving. Whether you are drawn by the beauty of the language, the solemnity of the rite, or the desire to encounter God in quiet reverence, Holy Eucharist, Rite I offers a sacred space for worship. Come as you are. Leave renewed. 
A Sung Celebration of Grace and Glory
Lift your heart in worship through word and music. Our Rite II service, drawn from the Book of Common Prayer, blends contemporary language with ancient rhythms of praise—brought to life through choir, organ, and congregational song. Rite II offers a more contemporary expression of the Eucharistic tradition, while remaining deeply rooted in Scripture and sacrament. Whether you are a lifelong Episcopalian or newly exploring liturgical worship, Holy Eucharist, Rite II offers a vibrant and welcoming experience. Join us as we sing, pray, and share in the mystery of Christ’s presence among us. 
A New Expression of Holy Eucharist
Immerse yourself in community through flexible liturgy including the Episcopal Church’s Enriching Our Worship* liturgy. This service will offer poetic language, inclusive prayers, and a deep sense of sacred presence. Whether you're seeking quiet reflection, fresh spiritual rhythms, or a contemplative close to your day, this Eucharist welcomes you into grace and renewal. * Enriching Our Worship (EOW) is a series of supplemental liturgical texts authorized by the Episcopal Church to expand and deepen the Church’s worship life. It was first published in 1997 by the Standing Liturgical Commission and continues to be used alongside the Book of Common Prayer.
