Worship & Sacraments
Our worship, centered on the Eucharistic feast (Holy Communion), deepens our faith and encourages us to faithful action.
English Services
On Sundays, we celebrate the Holy Eucharist in English at 8:00am (on pause) and 10:30am.
The 8:00am service is simple and short (45 minutes). It uses traditional language and does not include music (no hymns or service music is sung and no choir).
The 10:30am service uses more contemporary language and incorporates a variety of musical styles. It typically lasts 75 to 90 minutes. You can watch video recordings of some past 10:30 services below.
Misa Alegría
On Sundays, we celebrate the Holy Eucharist in Spanish at 5:30pm.
Misa Alegría, our Spanish-speaking congregation, formed in 2006. The congregation is appropriately named: Misa Alegría means “joyful mass,” and the service is full of life. A time for refreshments and fellowship follows, often until late in the evening.
