With an emphasis on beautiful liturgy, excellence in music, and practical preaching, worship at St. Mary's provides an opportunity to give thanks and praise to God. Sunday, or the Lord's Day, is the weekly commemoration of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, and is therefore the principal day of worship for Christians. We gather at 8:00 a.m. and 10:00 a.m. on Sundays to pray, to hear God's Word, and to receive God's grace in the bread and wine of Holy Communion. The Eucharist is the beating heart of St. Mary's; you can come to Mass during the week as well.
All our liturgies are celebrated according to the use of the Book of Common Prayer (1979), and are supplemented by materials drawn from the rich heritage of the Anglican and Catholic traditions. Whether you come for Solemn High Mass with incense and choir, or for a simple spoken Eucharist, we hope you will feel welcome. Please introduce yourself to one of the clergy.
In The Episcopal Church, all baptized persons are welcome to receive Holy Communion. If you feel led to follow Christ in his call to be baptized, please see a member of the clergy to schedule your baptism.
