Youth Sundays

On the last Sunday of each month, youth volunteers will usher, read the day’s lessons, and serve as acolytes-in-training at the 10 am service. Readings and prayers will be geared for our younger members so they can more fully participate and experience what worship in the Episcopal Church is all about. Look for the sign-up poster at the back of the church!

Messy Church is Here!

Messy Church is a way of being church so that all ages may join together to learn about God’s love in an accessible way. Meeting once a month, everyone is welcome to explore their faith while having fun and building community. Five values summarize Messy Church: Christ-centered; Creativity; Hospitality; Celebration; and All-age.

Beginning in September 2023, we’ll come together on the second Saturday of each month at 4 pm at St. Mary’s to hear the story of the day, join in a time of worship, explore activities related to the story of the day, and then share a simple meal to end our time together.

Come join the fun, no matter how young or old you are—everyone is welcome! For more information or to volunteer to help make Messy Church happen, please contact Jaime Grant, our Sunday School Director, or Mother Debbie.
